It doesn't. The magnet stays in the reticulum for the whole entire life of the animal.
The magnet on the refrigerator is holding up the shopping list.
A temporary magnet.

The real name of magnet is Magnetite or Lodestone. Magnet is a common name used to refer to objects that exhibit magnetic properties.
It is a permanent magnet. Electromagnets(as the name suggests) requires an electric source to become a magnet, when the power source is turned off it will not function as a magnet.
Farmers would typically use a large syringe or a magnet delivery tool to administer a magnet to cows. The magnet is commonly placed in the cow's stomach to attract any metal objects that the cow might ingest while grazing. This helps prevent hardware disease.
Yes
The exact same way that a normal magnet attracts metal.
Cows don't have "built in magnets." Magnets are inserted down the throat of a cow as a way to prevent her from getting hardware disease from eating too much scrap metal like nails and wire. The magnet in a cow works exactly the same as any "normal" magnet does.
You can't. It doesn't matter which end of a cow magnet is North or South. As long as it can pick up metal and the metal sticks to it, then it works just fine.
Get a veterinarian out as soon as possible. No cow magnet is going to prevent glass from puncturing the animal's insides.
A cow magnet is a large magnetic pill (2 1/2" long x 1" thick) that is put into a cow's stomach (specifically the reticulum). It collects any screws, bolts, nails or wire or anything else the cow may pick up along with the feed she eats. Magnets prevent what is called "hardwire disease," which is a malady that occurs when a foreign object punctures the stomach wall (primarily the reticulum), and bacteria enter from either outside or inside the cow's stomach causing infection, weight loss, and loss of appetite. The magnet keeps all of the hardware together in one spot when the reticulum contracts as the animal eats.
Yes. Most cow magnets can weigh around a pound or two each, but often never exceed three.
Putting a magnet on a cow's face would not have any significant effect on the cow. Magnets are often used in some forms of livestock management to help prevent hardware disease by attracting and collecting any metal objects the cow may accidentally ingest. Cows have a tough hide, so a magnet placed on their face would not cause harm.
Just get a fairly strong magnet, I used a cow magnet. Wrap the magnet in a cloth so as not to scratch the face of the panel. Place the magnet over the needle and rotate it counter clockwise. If the magnet is strong enough the needle will return to its proper position.
You could, but it really doesn't hurt her if you give her one extra by accident.
Some cows have magnets inside their stomachs! The magnets attract any metal that the cow might accidently eat, which would harm or kill the cow if it passed through the digestive system. A cow can keep a magnet inside the stomach for it's entire life without harm.
