This is a somewhat tricky question to answer. But you can basically imagine a magnet to be made up of a large amount of "elementary magnets", all of which have a north and a south pole, like this:(N---S) (N---S) (N---S) (N---S)
The combined magnetic field is the combination of each of the individual magnetic field; and since each of those point in the same direction, in this case north to the left, the combined magnetic field will also have north to the left.
If you break the magnet up, you will get smaller pieces, but the "elementary magnets" will still point in the same direction.
What else can I help you with?
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.
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.
Why do magnets make a N and S pole when you break a magnet?
When you break a magnet, the regions where the break occurred become the new North and South poles. This is because the magnetic domains within the magnet align themselves in a way that creates these distinct poles at the broken ends.
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.
How any poles does a magnet have?
2, a positive and a negative yes, a magnet has two poles, a north pole and a south pole. and if you break the magnet, each magnet will obtain its own north and south poles. no matter how many times you break a magnet, they will obtain their own north and south poles
If you break a magnet in half how does it become two magnets with two poles for each?
it becomes to peices
What happened to a bar magnet when broken in half?
Six. Every bar magnet has 2 poles. If a bar magnet is broken, each resultant piece will be a bar magnet in its own right.
Why does a mineral magnet stick to a magnet?
a mineral magnet can stick to a magnet because a mineral magnet has to poles the north and the south poles
What do we call a the ends of a magnet?
poles
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.
A magnet has how many poles?
A magnet has two poles which are known as north and south poles.
How many poles of a bar magnet are there and where are these poles located?
Answer. Two properties of a magnet are: (i) A magnet always has two poles: north pole and south pole.
