Have a glass plate and sprinkle iron filings on it and move a bar magnet under the plate and you can see the iron pieces dancing on the surface.

What is the force of attaraction between two objects in a vacuum?

In a vacuum, the force of attraction between two objects is determined by their masses and the distance between them, as described by Newton's law of universal gravitation. This force decreases as the distance between the objects increases and increases as the masses of the objects increase.


When you placed the magnet next to the iron?

nothing will happen dumbazz because it isnt magnetic


In what unit do you measure magnetic energy in?

asked this question on yahoo answers and this came up Answer 1 Magnetism generates a force and by itself it is not an energy. You generate energy by letting the magnetic force pull things together. In the same way that a hill is not an energy but if you roll down it you generate energy. To get back to the top you have to put the energy back in. Answer 2 Gauss is the unit of magnetic induction or magnetic flux density. I think this might be the answer to your question, but I am not sure


Why might a permanent magnet become unmagnetized if dropped?

When a permanent magnet is dropped, the impact could cause the magnetic domains within the magnet to become misaligned, leading to partial or total demagnetization. The force and shock from the drop can disrupt the alignment of the magnetic domains, causing the magnet to lose its magnetic properties.


What force makes object change positions?

Any force will accelerate an object to change its position. It might be gravitational, electric, magnetic, etc -- even muscle force, which is ultimately electrical at the atomic level. There are many kinds of forces, all of which can accelerate objects that have mass.

Where is the magnetic field concentrated in an electromagnet?

In an electromagnet, the most intense (concentrated) magnetic flux is in the core. The lines of magnetic force then radiate out from each pole in such a way as to form a closed loop between the N and S poles of the magnet. [You might want to consider why these external lines of force separate themselves from each other. - Just follow the laws of magnets.]


Is it copper or what magnetic force around a magnet?

The magnetic force around a magnet can be a lot of things. Just some things are stronger and some are less strong. Copper is absolutely not magnetic at all, you can experiment that by trying to pick up a penny with a magnet. I am not sure what is the magnetic part of a magnet, but I think it might be close to iron. Something like that. I do know though what is attracted to magnets. Iron, bolt, paper clips, and the metal part on scissors.

magnetic sensors and state where they might be used.

Why would we not expect magnetic fields on the moon or mercury?

You might, but that would be wrong! Mercury has a strong magnetic field.


What is the effect of a magnetic field on a stationary electric field?

The magnetic field will have no effect on a stationary electric charge. ( this means that the magnetic field is also stationary. ) If the charge is moving , relative to the magnetic field then there might be an effect, but the size and direction of the effect will depend on the direction of the electric charge as it moves through the field. If the charge is moving parallel to the field there will be no effect on it. If the charge is moving at right angles to the field then it will experience a force that is mutually orthogonal to the field and direction of the motion. You really need diagrams to properly explain this


Can Magnet attract a steel paper clip through air and water but not glass?

That statement is not true. Yes a magnet will attract a steel paper clip through air or water. No, a magnetic field will penetrate glass as well... probably. Certain types of glass (which are themselves ferromagnetic) might serve to block a magnetic field.
