Magnetism by induction
If you put piece of nonmagnetised metal into a magnetic field the domains organize and the metal is magnetised
Inducing
Moving it into something else
Permanent magnets
Alnco
Aluminum
Nickel
Cobalt
The source of al magnetism
Moving electric charges
Ways to demagnetize things (AKA randomizing the domain)
Heat
Force
Another magnetic field
What happens to magnets over time
Become weaker bc they compete with each other’s magnetic field
The earth is on a angle
23 degrees
Angle of declination
Is the difference in degrees between true north and magnetic north
Angle of declination
11 degrees east
Solar flares
Magnetic explosions on earth
MRI stands for
