Will cobalt absorb a magnetic field better than steel or iron because it is a denser ferromagnetic material? Please Help! Thanks in advance!
lLike Iron, it depends on the form that the cobalt is in. If you look at the standard standards used in magnetic susceptability, you will see a cobalt compound which has a low sussceptability. (sp?). You will also see lots of alloys the contain cobalt that are excellent magnets.
