    Depolarizing Magnets: Possibilities and Limitations

    Hey guys, It has been a while since I've done anything to do with magnetism and was wondering if I covered one side of a disc magnet is a non magnetic glue, would this weaken the polarity of this side? And the more layers of glue I 'paint' on, the weaker this side of the magnet is. In the...

    Material for not permanent 'sticking'

    Yes it is how you decide and nothing would prevent them from fixing them on the inside, however correct me if I'm wrong (it was a long time since I've done magnetism) but a magnet as a positive and negative side. In order for the object to actually stick, the magnets will have to be pretty...

    Material for not permanent 'sticking'

    The disk magnets is a good idea, but that will require them to be fixed on the outside of the plush which kinda will let them know what is what, I guess the throwing object design could be modified to accommodate the magnet on the outside rather than the inside. It would be good having it on the...

    Material for not permanent 'sticking'

    A physical game is being designed for kids to play - more engineering than physics but this part is troubling. The objects being thrown are small 'plush' with one side of Velcro around the outside, some have magnets in the middle some don't. That idea is for little kids to attempt to throw...

    Material for not permanent 'sticking'

    Not sure if this is the right forum at all but maybe you guys might have something. Basically, I need to stick and object that is thrown to another stationary object. But the object thrown needs to be able to be taken off. So far there is velcro to velcro and we have an object which is...

    Power Tools: Understanding DC & Brushless Motors

    Hey guys, Currently doing a task on electric motors and their uses in things. I have chosen to do power tools (specifically cordless drills) as I am aware that many have employed brushed DC motors but now use brushless technology. Firstly, I don't know if any of you guys have done something...
