What are some other names for a neodymium magnet?

Some other names include NdFeB, Neo, or Nib. This is also known as a rare-earth magnet and they have the potential to store large amounts of magnetic energy. Several different websites sell these - one is Applied Magnets.


Can a magnet pick up coins?

The above answer is NOT correct. Coins are not magnetic, but depending on the metal they're made of SOME of them may be attracted to a magnet. Specifically, coins made of steel or high concentrations of nickel will be attracted to a magnet but those containing other metals such as copper or aluminum are not. Some Canadian, British, and European coins are made of steel as were 1943-dated US cents; all of these are attracted to a magnet. Other coins though have a lot of copper in them (e.g. most US coins except cents) and these are NOT attracted to a magnet.


When you drop a magnet it loses some of its power to what object?

When a magnet is dropped, it loses some of its power to other magnetic materials in its surroundings. This can occur when the magnet aligns with the poles of another magnet or when it induces a magnetic field in a nearby object, causing it to become magnetized temporarily.


What is the 1943 penny worth that can be picked up by a magnet?

The 1943 penny that can be picked up by a magnet is likely a steel penny, which was minted during World War II due to a copper shortage. While common, these pennies can still have some value to collectors, with prices typically ranging from a few cents to a few dollars depending on condition and rarity.


What objects are atracted to a magnet?

Objects that are attracted to a magnet are typically made of materials containing iron, nickel, or cobalt. This includes materials like iron, steel, nickel, and certain alloys. Other materials, such as plastic or wood, are not attracted to a magnet.

Can you use silverware for pleasure?

Yes, silverware can be used in many ways. Eating in itself is often considered a pleasure, but there are also some less traditional uses. As upcycling becomes more popular, silverware is often used in crafting. Rings, chimes, wall decor, and other pleasurable items. You can also play spoons as a musical instrument. See the related links for some cool ways to reuse or upcycle your silverware. However, if you have other meanings by the word pleasure, it is not really recommended. Silverware of any type tends to have some sharp or very flat edges. Even spoons can easily scrape membranes, which could lead to infections. There are also other injuries that may occur. This all goes without mentioning, who would ever want to eat off of that silverware again?

What elements are found in silverware?

Silverware typically consists of stainless steel, which is a combination of iron, chromium, and nickel. Silver-plated silverware is made from a base metal such as copper or brass coated with a layer of silver. Some high-end silverware may be made from sterling silver, which is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% by weight of silver and 7.5% by weight of other metals such as copper.

How do ends of a magnet differ?

Well, I'm not entirely sure, but if this helps, one end of the magnet is South (s) the other is north (n). The north attracts the south pole and the other way round. If north Poles or south) are put together they repel each other.


What is a magnets magnetic field?

Whatever it is that enables a magnet to push another magnet without ever touching it, is called the "magnetic field". It is an invisible attribute of a magnet that surrounds the magnet and exerts forces on other magnets and some non magnets, like iron.


Is it normal to have your silverware talk to you?

No, unless you've taken some hallucinogens.


If a paper clip is picked up by a magnet underwater will the paper clip be magnetized and pick up other paper clips?

Yes. But the attached paper clip will usually not generate a magnetic field as strong as the magnet itself. At some point, either the field will be too weak to pick up another clip, or the weight of the clips will exceed the lifting power of the original magnet. The magnetic field is not affected by water. In fact, the slight reduction in weight due to the buoyancy will normally allow a slightly larger string to be formed underwater than in air.
