Rapidly rub the iron with the steel magnet for approximately 2 minutes for every pound of iron. Repeat on all sides of the piece of iron. Repeat process as needed until demagnetized.
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
To magnetize an iron nail, align the nail along the magnetic field lines of a magnet and rub one end of the magnet against the iron nail in the same direction multiple times. This process will cause the domains in the iron nail to align in the direction of the magnetic field, creating a magnetized iron nail.
Yes, iron is a magnetic material, so an iron nail can be easily magnetized. When exposed to a magnetic field, iron atoms align in such a way that they create a magnetic field, making the iron nail act as a magnet.
Yes, every material has its limit in this respect.
An iron nail is more strongly attracted to a magnet because the iron nail itself is made of ferromagnetic material, which can become magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. This causes the iron nail to be attracted to the magnet.
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
Like poles will repel.Unlike poles will attract.

Dropping it on a hard surface
Yes, every material has its limit in this respect.
Hammering a magnetized nail can disrupt its magnetic alignment, causing it to lose its magnetization. The force and impact from the hammer can cause the magnetic domains within the nail to realign randomly, leading to the loss of the nail's magnetic properties.
Yes, if a nail is made of steel, it will will not be magnetized unless it is magnetized by a magnet by being hit.
An iron nail is more strongly attracted to a magnet because the iron nail itself is made of ferromagnetic material, which can become magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. This causes the iron nail to be attracted to the magnet.
