Physical Magnetism
Refers to the physical process where metal becomes a magnet; it's scientific.

In science class, we learned how to magnetize a needle to create a compass.
Temporary State
Magnetizing metal can be temporary and doesn't mean it's permanently magnetic.

My dad used to magnetize his tools for one-time uses.
Practical Use
Often used when discussing how to make picking up other metal easier.

Can you magnetize this paperclip so it holds the screws?

and run some steam to spin a turbine somewhere, and on those machines, it was all a bit of an afterthought. So I decided that surely there is a better way of doing that. So back to the literature, and I read about the fusion everywhere. One way in particular attracted my attention, and it's called magnetized target fusion,

anything that's in the way so you have to know where all these bits of debris are and put your launch time accordingly so you miss it there are no many many people working on space debris looking at ways of harpooning it magnetizing

magnetism there are regions on Mars where for some reason we don't understand why at this point the surface is very very highly magnetized is there water on Mars the answer is no there is no liquid water on the surface of Mars

magnetic field one rotation of a clock is one o'clock you apply a little bit of a bias feel to it that allows you to actually magnetize the fluid droplet itself now you realize that you can make
