Recycling centres use magnetic separation often to separate components from recycling, isolate metals, and purify ores. [1] Overhead magnets, magnetic pulleys, and the magnetic drums were the methods used in the recycling industry. [1] Magnetic separation is also useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet.

In April 2015 researchers at Stanford University claimed to have developed an aluminium-ion battery with a recharge time of about one minute (for an unspecified battery capacity). [7] Their cell provides about 2 volts, 4 volts if connected in a series of two cells. [7] [25] The prototype lasted over 7,500 charge-discharge cycles with no loss of ...
Alnico alloys can be magnetised to produce strong magnetic fields and have a high coercivity (resistance to demagnetization), thus making strong permanent magnets. Of the more commonly available magnets, only rare-earth magnets such as neodymium and samarium-cobalt are stronger.
Magnetic susceptibility indicates whether a material is attracted into or repelled out of a magnetic field. Paramagnetic materials align with the applied field and are attracted to regions of greater magnetic field. Diamagnetic materials are anti-aligned and are pushed away, toward regions of lower magnetic fields.
With the magnetic field turned off, a radial current flows in the conducting annulus due to the battery connected between the (infinite) conductivity rims. When a magnetic field along the axis is turned on (B points directly out of the screen), the Lorentz force drives a circular component of current, and the resistance between the inner and ...
Magnets exert forces and torques on each other through the interaction of their magnetic fields.The forces of attraction and repulsion are a result of these interactions. The magnetic field of each magnet is due to microscopic currents of electrically charged electrons orbiting nuclei and the intrinsic magnetism of fundamental particles (such as electrons) that make up the mater
Note that the conductive sheet [?] is not made of ferromagnetic metal such as iron or steel; usually copper or aluminum are used, which are not attracted to a magnet. The brake does not work by the simple attraction of a ferromagnetic metal to the magnet. See the diagram at right. It shows a metal sheet (C) moving to the right under a magnet.
The domains will remain aligned when the external field is removed, and sum to create a magnetic field of their own extending into the space around the material, thus creating a "permanent" magnet. The domains do not go back to their original minimum energy configuration when the field is removed because the domain walls tend to become 'pinned ...
