just wondering if its a sneaky answer or just as simple as put a magnet next to it?
Pinu7 said:Of course, objects that respond in a magnetic field are magnetic. Those that aren't are non-magnetic. Actually, ALL materials are magnetic but some are more magnetic than others.
EDIT: For many materials, you may need powerful measuring tools to determine, with accuracy, how magnetic an object is.
To test whether or not a piece of metal is magnetic, you can use a magnet and observe if the metal is attracted to it. If the metal is attracted to the magnet, it is considered magnetic.
Yes, any type of magnet can be used to test the magnetism of a piece of metal. However, stronger magnets may provide more accurate results.
If the metal is not attracted to the magnet, it is considered non-magnetic. This could be due to the metal's composition or the strength of the magnet being too weak for the metal's magnetism to be detected.
There is no specific method for testing magnetism of a piece of metal with a magnet. Simply hold the magnet close to the metal and observe if it is attracted to the magnet.
No, this method is only used to test whether or not a piece of metal is magnetic. To determine the strength of a magnet, specialized equipment and procedures are needed.
