What are three types of metal that can be turned into a permanent magnet?

There are two main/most common, types of magnet. One is permanent and the other is temporary.
There could be more detailed classifications, but I do not know them ;)

How do you make a permanent magnet?
To make a magnet you can do it three ways. No1. Get a metal rod and wrap some Insulated copper wire around it. You can use some other wires but it might not work as well. Make sure the wire isn't too thick. Wrap the wire 50+ times. Connect the two ends of the wire to a battery. Don't connect it to a strong power source as it will get very hot very quickly. Now the rod is a magnet until the battery dies or you cut off the current. Also; now the iron rod now has become a weak permanent magnet. The more current you add to it the more stronger it will be and the longer you have the battery on the stronger it will be.. Also, don't drop it as it will lose it's magnetic properties. No2. Get a magnet. The stronger the better. Rub the magnet up a piece of metal then when you get to the end take the magnet off the metal and take it back to the start making sure the magnet doesn't touch the metal. I don't really like this method as it takes a long time to get the metal to pick up anything decent. No3. Get a magnet and let it stick to a piece of metal. The piece of metal will be weak but enough to make the needle on a compass move. (Don't ruin a compass. Mine point south-west and it shouldn't do that...)
Permanent magnet how do i make a magnet?
To make a permanent magnet, you can start by obtaining a magnetic material (such as iron, cobalt, or nickel) and exposing it to a strong magnetic field. This aligns the atoms within the material in the same direction, creating a magnetic field. To maintain this magnetization, the material is typically heated and then cooled in the presence of the magnetic field.
How do you make a magnet?
A magnet is typically made by exposing a material like iron or steel to a magnetic field. This can align the magnetic domains within the material, creating a permanent magnet. Other methods include stroking a magnet along the material or subjecting it to high temperatures.
Why is alumin not attracted to magnet?
Aluminium is not a metal, it is a metalloid. Magnets only attract to three major metal elements at room temperature: nickel, iron, and cobalt.
Can a magnet have 3 poles?
Of course . You can make such a magnet easily using a safety pin. Take a safety pin and magnetize it using a permanent magnet. Then unfold it. The ends will have same poles and at the middle you will have the other. So you can have a magnet with three poles. Verify it using compass.

Why are strong magnets attracted to a door magnet in a bowl of water then three metal thumbtacks?
The strong magnet is attracted to the door magnet because opposite poles attract each other - the door magnet was likely oriented to attract the strong magnet. The metal thumbtacks are not attracted to the strong magnet because the magnetism of the thumbtacks is weaker compared to the door magnet.
What three things are required to make a temporary magnet?
a piece of metal 12volt batt a piece of wire

What are the three uses of a permanent magnet?
Three uses of a permanent magnet are: 1. In the needles of compasses which are used to navigate airplanes and ships; 2. In fridge door seals, to hold the doors closed; 3. In loudspeakers and microphones, which need to have permanent magnets as well as electromagnets to work.

You are given a small plotting compass and three grey metal bars one is aluminum one is iron one is magnet how can i identify each one?
The bar that affects the compass is the magnet, The bar that is attracted to the magnet is iron, and the bar that is not attracted to the magnet is aluminum.

Wrap the wire 50+ times. Connect the two ends of the wire to a battery. Don't connect it to a strong power source as it will get very hot. I connected mine to a 1.5 volt battery and it could lift up my scissors then drop them again.(Note: The iron rod now has become a weak permanent magnet. The more current you add to it the more stronger it will be and the longer you have the battery on the stronger it will be.. Also, don't drop it as it will lose it's magnetic properties.)No2. Get a magnet. The stronger the better. Rub one end only of the magnet up a piece of metal then when you get to the end take the magnet off the metal and take it back to the start making sure the magnet doesn't touch the metal.

a magnet that remains magnetized for only a small time interval as compared to a permanent magnet.
