Cutting a magnet in half can be done in a number of ways. A hack saw might work well (but the cuttings will stick to the magnet and the saw blade). Some magnets can actually be broken in half. But that leaves a "rough" end and is imprecise.

What happens to a magnet force when a bar magnet is cracked through the middle?
If a bar magnet is broken in half, each half is a magnet with its own north and south pole. The force used to break the magnet will also tend to partially demagnetize the magnet, although that might be a minor effect.
What are the parts of a magnet and the effect of breaking a magnet?
parts of a magnet-1. north pole2. south polethe breaking of a magnet form new magnets.when breaking is done along the axis ,pole strength decrease and along perpendicular axis it does not change.
Does a compass only have a north pole?
No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet. If you cut the magnet in half, each half will still have a north pole and a half pole.No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet.

When you break an iron magnet into two pieces you get what?
Two smaller magnets.
What will happen to poles in a magnet when you cut a magnet in two?
Nothing happens, except that now you have two magnets. The poles of a magnet are not actually localized at the two ends of the magnet but are inherent to the magnetic properties of the magnet. As the magnetic properties are not altered by a modification of the magnet such as cutting it in half, there will be no effect on the poles of the magnet.
What is the direction for if want to break a magnet in half to make some piece of magnet?
You can break it in any direction.
If you break a magnet in half what happens to the magnet?
If you break a magnet in half, each half gains a new pole. For example, you are holding a magnet in both hands with the north magnetic pole in your left hand and the south magnetic pole in your right hand. You break the magnet in half. The half that is in your left hand gains a new south magnetic pole and the half that is in your right hand gains a new north magnetic pole.
Breaking a bar magnet in half will produce?
2 new magnets
What happens to the poles if you break the magnet in half?
If you break a magnet in half, each half gains a new pole. For example, you are holding a magnet in both hands with the north magnetic pole in your left hand and the south magnetic pole in your right hand. You break the magnet in half. The half that is in your left hand gains a new south magnetic pole and the half that is in your right hand gains a new north magnetic pole.
If you were to break the magnet in your sketch in half what would happen?
I don't see any sketch. But if you break a magnet in two, each part will be a magnet with its own north and south pole.
When magnet broken in half each half is a magnet?
Yes, each half still has magnetic properties.
How do you break out of a circle without breaking it?
when u get half way to the wall you fold it and you can break out
What happens to a magnet force when a bar magnet is cracked through the middle?
If a bar magnet is broken in half, each half is a magnet with its own north and south pole. The force used to break the magnet will also tend to partially demagnetize the magnet, although that might be a minor effect.
How does breaking a magnet change its magnetic properties?
There is no reversal of polarity when a magnet is broken. If you break a magnet, labeled N--S, into two, then you end up with two magnets of N--S and N--S.
If you break a magnet in half what happens to the magnetic poles?
If you break a magnet in half, each half gains a new pole. For example, you are holding a magnet in both hands with the north magnetic pole in your left hand and the south magnetic pole in your right hand. You break the magnet in half. The half that is in your left hand gains a new south magnetic pole and the half that is in your right hand gains a new north magnetic pole.
If you break a magnet in half how does it become two magnets with two poles for each?
it becomes to peices
When you break a magnet in half how many poles do the pieces have?
A bar magnet has two poles, a north and a south. When you break a bar magnet into to pieces, you create two bar magnets, each with a north and a south pole. So the total number of poles will then be four.
