It does ONLY if the atoms are lined up properly (and you line them up using a magnetic field).
A piece of iron inside a coil forms an electromagnet. When current flows through the coil, it creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the iron, making it behave like a magnet. Electromagnets are used in various applications such as electric motors, generators, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.
You can turn a piece of iron into a temporary magnet by stroking it with a permanent magnet in the same direction multiple times. This process aligns the magnetic domains within the iron, creating a temporary magnetic field.
A magnet has the ability to attract other objects and create a magnetic field, while a piece of iron that is not magnetic does not have this property. This is due to the alignment of the atoms within the material, which allows a magnet to have a north and south pole, while non-magnetic iron does not exhibit this behavior.
A piece of iron can be temporarily magnetized by stroking it with a magnet in the same direction multiple times. This aligns the magnetic domains within the iron, creating a temporary magnetic field. Charging the iron by induction, where it is brought close to a strong magnet, can also temporarily magnetize it.
Iron and other metallic objects can be separated using a magnet. The magnet will attract the iron and other ferrous materials, allowing them to be easily separated from non-metallic materials.
The process by which a iron piece touching a permanent magnet behaves as a magnet as long as it maintains contact is called magnetic induction. not only does this work when the iron is physically touching the magnet but it works as long as the piece of iron remains under the influence of the magnet. A iron piece attracted to a magnet through a paper with out any physical contact will also behave as a magnet.
When an iron piece is quite away from the magnet ,i.e, not present in magnetic field of the magnet then the iron piece is in neutral state ,i.e, there is no north & south pole . But , as soon as the iron piece interacts with magnetic field of magnet ,i.e, near to the magnet then the north pole of magnet make the nearer part or end of the iron piece south pole & simultaneously other part of iron becomes north pole . Similarly if south pole of the magnet interacts with iron piece then that end/part becomes north pole & other end becomes north pole . Now this iron piece has north & south pole .So iron piece is now converted into magnet which can attract other iron pieces in similar way as explained before .

A piece of iron inside a coil forms an electromagnet. When current flows through the coil, it creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the iron, making it behave like a magnet. Electromagnets are used in various applications such as electric motors, generators, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.
When you touch a piece of iron to a permanent magnet, the iron can become magnetized temporarily because it can align its domains with the magnetic field. However, once the iron is removed from the magnet, it will lose its magnetism over time. The iron itself does not retain a permanent magnetism like the original magnet.
Core
If the piece of metal is a magnet it will attract another piece of iron. You should be able to feel this attraction as the two become very close. It's magnetic field can be "seen"( that is the effect) by placing iron filings on a piece of glass and place the magnet beneath the glass. Otherwise it is not a magnet.
Hold a magnet against it. magnets attract iron.
When a magnet is brought close to a piece of iron, the magnetic field of the magnet causes the atoms within the iron to temporarily align in the same direction as the magnetic field. This alignment creates a magnetic field within the iron, which then interacts with the magnetic field of the magnet, causing attraction between the two. The iron itself does not become permanently magnetized, it just responds to the external magnetic field of the magnet.
It will become an electro-magnet which is an temporary magnet. it is because of the induction property, the magnetic effect gets transfered to the Scale. (it can be any piece of Iron)
To get a magnet.Magnets are available in nature.You can make a magnet by tying a piece of iron to a strong magnet for some time.You can also get a magnet by making an Electo-magnet or solenoid.
because the iron filings are in a magnetic field
