A sump plug in a car is often magnetized to help attract and collect any metal particles or debris that may accumulate in the oil pan. This can help prevent the particles from circulating through the engine and causing damage.

What is the difference between a weakly magnetised nail and a strongly magnetised nail?

The strong magnetised nail will pick up more paper clips than the weak magnetised nail.That is because the strong magnetised nail is getting more strength and that means that the weak magnetised nail is getting less strength.in a steel nail there are these things called domains, in a weakly magnetised nail some of them will be pointing north, south, east and west, but however in a strongly magnetised nail all the domains will point to north.


What is the magnetised circle on a floppy disk called?

It's called a mx-saz-paz (technical term) cylindral sazzy for general term


How is the arrangement of domains different in a magnetised and a non magnetised piece of iorn?

In an unmagnetised piece of iron, these magnetic domains are arranged randomly and point in lots of different directions - they cancel each other out. In a magnetised piece of iron, all these domains point in the same direction. This makes one end of the magnet act as a north pole and the other end act as a south pole. The better the domains are aligned, the stronger the magnet. Bye bye!

In a 200 N force acts on a 25 kg car what will be the acceleration of the car be?

The acceleration of the car will be 8 m/s². This can be calculated using the formula a = F/m, where a is acceleration, F is force (200 N), and m is mass (25 kg). Plug in the values to get a = 200 N / 25 kg = 8 m/s².
