- Iron filings can be used to show magnetic fields created by magnets (such as in the picture to the right). Magnets only attract certain types of metals, other materials such as glass, plastic and wood aren't attracted. Metals such as iron, nickel and cobalt are attracted to magnets. Most metals however are not attracted to magnets, these include copper, silver, gold, magnesium, platinum, aluminium and more. They may however magnetize a small amount while placed in a magnetic field. Magnetism can attract magnetic objects or push them away.

- Only materials containing iron, cobalt, nickel, or a few other rare elements are noticeably magnetic. Public Domain Image, source: NASA. Not all metals are magnetic. Actually, it depends on what you mean by the word magnetic. There are four basic types of magnetism that a material can have: superconducting, diamagnetic, paramagnetic, and lastly ferromagnetic. Superconducting materials are strongly repelled from permanent magnets.

- How can you test if a piece of metal is a magnet. Seeing if it sticks to a magnet is not a good test, because unmagnetised iron, steel, cobalt and nickel objects will be attracted to either pole of a magnet.

- Ferromagnets. A ferromagnetic material is one that has magnetic properties similar to those of iron. In other words, you can make a magnet out of it. Some other ferromagnetic materials are nickel, cobalt, and alnico, an aluminum-nickel-cobalt alloy.

- The uncommon element gadolinium is magnetic. These form alloys that are also magnetic, such as steel. The rare-earth elements neodymium and samarium can also form magnetic alloys, and neodymium magnets are among the most powerful of permanent magnets.

Ferromagnetism (iron and steel) Remind students that only certain metals are magnetic, or attracted to a magnet. These include iron, cobalt, nickel, and steel. Point out that steel is a blend of materials that includes iron and carbon.

- Magnets are made by exposing ferromagnetic metals like iron and nickel to magnetic fields. When these metals are heated to a certain temperature, they become permanently magnetized. It's also possible to temporarily magnetize them by using a variety of methods you can try safely at home.

What are the paramagnetic elements?   Paramagnetic metals have a small and positive susceptibility to magnetic fields. These materials are slightly attracted by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed.Paramagnetic properties are due to the presence of some unpaired electrons, and from the realignment of the electron orbits caused by the external magnetic field.Paramagnetic materials include magnesium, molybdenum, lithium, and tantalum.hese materials are slightly attracted by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed.

Magnet Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic). These include iron, nickel, cobalt, some alloys of rare earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone.aterials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic).

- A. MDI Metal Detector Systems will detect all types of metal. There are three basic categories: Ferrous (magnetic), Non-Ferrous (non-magnetic), and Stainless Steel. 1) Ferrous Metal is any metal that can be attracted to a magnet. This is iron and steel. In time it will rust when exposed to air and water.

- But if all the electrons algn the same way, a strong magnetic field results. When you bring a magnet close to iron, a property of iron allows the spinning electrons in the iron to easily align with the magnetic field. Other substances do not allow this alignment as easily.he only common metals that can be magnetised are iron, cobalt and nickel. Mild steel, an alloy that contains over 98% iron, can also be magnetised because of its high iron content.

- An earth magnet will stick to any iron content that anything contains. There are manufacturers of cast brass figurines, from countries such as India, that mix their alloys dif … ferently than we do here, and yes a very strong magnet will stick to it. Only slightly, but it will stick to it.

ANSHS Physics Classroom â MAGNETISM 1 A magnet is an object that exhibits a strong magnetic field and will attract materials like iron to it. 2  Magnets have two poles, called the north (N) and south (S) poles. 3  Two magnets will be attracted by their opposite poles, and each will repel the light pole of the other magnet.

MAGNETISM The most common magnetic material is steel, an alloy (mix) of iron, other metals, and carbon. Pure iron becomes magnetized in a magnetic field but does not stay magnetic. Steel can make a permanent magnet.agnetism is what gives magnets their ability to attract objects made of iron or steel. A magnet creates around itself a region of space with special properties. This region is known as a MAGNETIC FIELD. When two magnets come near each other, their fields create forces that attract or repel.

Making rocks into magnets Some materials, such as lodestones, create a persistent magnetic field. Others with unpaired electrons, such as iron, can become magnetized when they’re placed within a magnetic field and their atoms rotate and align. Scientists don’t know how some types of rocks, including lodestones, become so strongly magnetized.

Magnetic materials Ferromagnets. A ferromagnetic material is one that has magnetic properties similar to those of iron. In other words, you can make a magnet out of it. Some other ferromagnetic materials are nickel, cobalt, and alnico, an aluminum-nickel-cobalt alloy.Magnetic fields come from currents.o make a permanent magnet, a piece of hard iron is placed in a magnetic field. The domains align with the field, and retain a good deal of that alignment when the field is removed, resulting in a magnet. An electromagnet, in contrast, uses soft iron; this allows the field to be turned on and off.

- Magnetic Keepers. If two magnets are placed side by side there will be mutual repulsion or attraction. This weakens the strength of the magnet. To prevent this, bar magnets are placed side by side with opposite poles near. A soft iron piece called a keeper is placed across the poles as shown in figure.This soft iron piece provides a path for the magnetic field lines to form a continuous loop.Thus it helps in preserving the magnetic field.f two magnets are placed side by side there will be mutual repulsion or attraction. This weakens the strength of the magnet. To prevent this, bar magnets are placed side by side with opposite poles near.

- This is the only recorded instance of a magnetic gas. While they are solids, not gases, compounds formed from actinide series elements exhibit similar magnetic properties when cooled. The most powerful naturally occurring magnet is a compound, not a pure element: magnetite, or iron oxide. Naturally magnetized pieces of magnetite are called lodestones and have been used for their magnetic properties since ancient times. Large deposits of magnetite are magnetic enough to interfere with compasses.

How Magnets Work Iron filings (right) align along the magnetic field lines of a cylindrical neodymium magnet. To understand the answers to these questions, it helps to have a basic definition of a magnet. Magnets are objects that produce magnetic fields and attract metals like iron, nickel and cobalt. The magnetic field's lines of force exit the magnet from its north pole and enter its south pole. Permanent or hard magnets create their own magnetic field all the time.

Magnet A magnet is a very special metal. When a magnet goes near a special kind of metal or other magnets, and the poles (sides) touching are opposite, it will pull, or attract the other metal or magnet closer. Also, if the two poles are the same, the two magnets will push away, or repel, from each other. This is called magnetism.

- Diamagnetic Metals. The term diamagnetic is a more technically accurate way of describing a material that is not attracted to a magnet. The atoms or molecules of a diamagnetic substance do not have net dipole moments, so they do not act as magnets.A diamagnetic substance is pushed out of a magnetic field, but with most materials the force is so weak you won't be able to observe it in everyday life. Diamagnetic metals include copper, silver and lead.he atoms or molecules of a diamagnetic substance do not have net dipole moments, so they do not act as magnets.
