Magnetism FAQ Basic Electricity Question 1 A permanent magnet is a device that retains a magnetic field without need for a power source. Though many of us have experienced the effects of magnetism from a permanent magnet, very few people can describe what causes permanent magnetism. Explain the cause of permanent magnetism, in your own [...]
What Are Magnetic Strainers And Filters? There’s a major misconception about the word filters when it comes to marine engineering equipment. As an equipment which carries out filtration is called as a filter but indeed this word is a misnomer and this may appear legit when you understand the concept behind it. Filters and Strainers [...]
Different Magnetism Materials, How different materials react to magnetism Scientists have a number of different words to describe how materials behave when you put them near a magnet (which is another way of saying when you put them inside a magnetic field). Broadly speaking, we can divide all materials into two kinds called paramagnetic and [...]
Magnetism Electricity: Theory of Electromagnetism Electromagnets show that you can make magnetism using electricity. In fact, as European scientists discovered in the 19th century, electricity always makes magnetism when it moves about or changes. Every time an electric current flows in a wire, it generates a magnetic field all around it. Changing electricity, in short, [...]
Magnetic Therapy Benefits - magnetic therapy, magnetic bracelets and various other magnet-containing products are advertised often on TV and in magazines. They rely on the power of an alternative healing method known as magnetic therapy. Does magnetic therapy really work ?? Current Use of Magnetic Therapy We are now back to a resurgence of magnets [...]
Magnet therapy, magnetic therapy, or magnotherapy is a pseudoscientific alternative medicine practice involving the use of static magnetic fields. Practitioners claim that subjecting certain parts of the body to magnetostatic fields produced by permanent magnets has beneficial health effects. These physical and biological claims are unproven and no effects on health or healing have been [...]
Diamagnetic Levitation, Magnetic Levitation- Everyone is familiar with magnets that attract ferrous objects like iron and your fridge. A steel nail will be attracted to a magnet. But what is less known is that there are materials that are REPELLED by a magnetic field. In fact, almost everything is diamagnetic. The only reason you don't [...]
