Very Important Question ...
Why is pure iron not used for making permanent magnets? Name one material used for making permanent magnets. Describe how permanent magnets are made electrically.
Answers
⏭️ Why is pure iron not used for making permanent magnets?
▶️ Pure iron cannot retain its magnetism for long time. Hence it cannot be used for making permanent magnets.
⏭️ Name one material used for making permanent magnets.
▶️Cobalt-steel or some alloys of iron such as ALNICO are used for making permanent magnet.
⏭️ Describe how permanent magnets are made electrically.
▶️For the formation of permanent magnet electrically a current carrying solenoid is used to magnetise steel rod.Steel rod is kept inside the solenoid.. A strong uniform magnetic field produced by the current carrying solenoid magnetise it.The magnet so formed retains the magnetism even after switching off the current in solenoid.
▶️ Permanent magnets are used in like (i) Galvanometer and (ii) loudspeakers
