| What is magnetic induction? |
|
Definition
| The basic vectorial dimension used to describe the magnetic field is known as the magnetic induction and is described in terms of length and direction. Graphically, magnetic induction is represented by induction lines. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| these are drawn so that the number of lines per the surface area perpendicular to them is proportional to the intensity of the field. This means that tightly grouped lines represent a strong field, whereas a sparsely placed line represents a weak field. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The number of lines per given surface area determines the strength of a magnet. For instance, a 1,000 gauss magnet is stronger than a 500 gauss magnet and can attract more iron. |

| How do you prepare magnetized water? |
|
Definition
| Fill a glass container with water and place the container on a high strength flat magnet. Experts disagree about the amount of time required for magnetization, but the average time recommended is between 12 and 24 hours. The time required is the same for both mixed and unipolar water. |
