Why a horse shoe magnet is used in sonometer?

A horseshoe magnet is used in a sonometer to create a magnetic field that can interact with a vibrating metal strip (sonometer wire) to produce sound. When the magnet is placed near the wire and the wire is set into motion, the changing magnetic field induces an electrical current in the wire, which creates vibrations that produce sound waves.


What are 5 types of artificial magnets and state their uses?

Alnico magnets: used in sensors, speakers, and electric motors. Ceramic magnets: used in educational kits, refrigerator magnets, and crafting. Neodymium magnets: used in headphones, wind turbines, and MRI machines. Samarium Cobalt magnets: used in aerospace applications, electric vehicles, and small motors. Flexible magnets: used in signage, refrigerator decorations, and craft projects.


What is a U shaped magnet called?

Magnets don't have to be that shape, but it is sometimes a convenient shape, when using it to attract a piece of magnetic material. Magnets can be straight bars, or cubes, or various other shapes.


What are the different types of magnet?

bar magnet, horse shoe magnet,ball ended magnet and cylindrical magnet.I recomend doing the iron shavings and bar magnet experiment.x.x TRY IT .There are 3 types o magnets parmanent, temporary, and electromagnets.you can also use water andblue food colloring to create a magnetic field.Bar Magnet, horseshoe magnet etc


What is the difference between a permanent and non permanent magnet?

Permanent magnets are bar magnets or horse shoe magnets which has magnetism at all times. But non permanent also known as temporary magnets are usually electromagnets which would have magnetism only when current flows through the coil that surrounds it.

What is a horse shoe magnet?

Its shape resembles the horse shoe ie U shaped. The main difference between this horse shoe and bar magnets is that the two poles will be so close in the earlier case while they will be at the extreme ends in the latter case. Hence lifting magnetic materials such iron is much easier with horse shoe magnets compared to that of bar magnets.
