Alwin puts magnets in her sewing
kit together with the needles.
• What was her purpose of
putting the magnet in it?
• What is the importance of the
magnet in her sewing kit?
Here are the other benefits of
using magnets:
• They are used to construct the
electrical motors and the generators
which convert the electrical energy
into mechanical energy and vice
versa.
• They are also used in the speakers
which can convert the electrical
energy into sound energy.
• They are used in the electrical bells.
• They are used in the Maglev trains. In
the Maglev trains, the super
conducting magnets are used on the
tracks on which the train floats. These
types of the trains are working on the
repulsion force of the magnets.

• They are also used to sort out the

magnetic and non magnetic
substances from the scrap.
• They are used in TV screens,
computer screens, telephones and in
tape recorders.
• They are used by the candy or cold
drink vendors to separate the metallic
cap from the lots.
• They are used in cranes.
• They are used in the refrigerators to
keep the door close.
• The most important use of the magnet
is the magnetic compass which is
used to find the geographical
directions.
Cite more situations
that magnet can be
use in separating
mixtures in our
daily living
You accidentally fell in
the floor a open pack
of pins. What is the
best way to gather all
the pins more faster
and easier? Why?
Can we benefits
from using
magnets in
separating
mixtures? How?
Draw happy face that show the benefits
from separating mixtures using magnet
and sad face if it is not.
1. Separating iron nails from glass
chippings and separating iron paper
clips from saw dusts.
2. Magnetic separators are used in
factories. Materials are put on a
conveyor belt that is spun by magnetic
wheels.
3. Magnetic separation technique can
also be useful in mining as it is
attracted to a magnet.
4. Magnetic separator is also used in
milling. It removes metal species in
wheat, in order to ensure safety at
work. To remove metal content
from wheat to protect other
machines safety
5. Remove metal powder mixed in
flour during milling process and to
ensure product purity, magnetic
separation is needed before
finished product packaging.
