Why does the needle of a compass point south when it's put on a bar magnet?
When a compass needle is placed near a bar magnet, it aligns itself with the magnetic field created by the magnet. The compass needle is a small magnet itself, with its north pole attracted to the south pole of the bar magnet and repelled by its north pole. If the compass needle points south, it indicates that the bar magnet's south pole is near the compass's north pole, demonstrating the fundamental property of magnetic attraction and repulsion. Thus, the orientation of the compass needle reflects the magnetic field direction of the bar magnet.
What happens when you break a magnet?
As you break a magnet, the remnant (broken piece) shall still remain a magnet with the same properties and poles. However, there is only so far a magnet can be broken. Visualize a magnet. Now imagine to have a knife that would keep cutting the magnet into half. It will reach a point that cutting the 'magnet' further would yield into a particle with no magnetic charge whatsoever. This is called a magnetic domain. Cutting a magnetic domain further would yield into a charge-less particle as it would be obviously incorrect to state that an atom of a magnetized steel bar would still remain a magnet.
How could you use a bar magnet to find your way out the forest?
I would think the usual reason of getting lost is not following a straight path (going in circles). Human tends to favorite one side (because of inner ear imbalance), so the walking path is curved, and eventually you are back to the starting point. A compass will have set a more-or-less straight course. How to construct a compass with a bar magnet? I can think of two ways. You can tie the magnet to a string and let it settle with the magnet at the bottom of the string. The alternative is to find a puddle every so often, drop the bar magnet in the water, and let it show the way (if the magnet floats; it will be better if you can find a container to put water in and bring it with you).
How does the Earths magnetism help us find your way?
As such till now there is no proper or valid theory to prove or explain the cause of earth's magnetic field. A bar magnet or a magnetic compass alligns itself in the direction of earth's magnetic field. This process happens as south pole of magnet alligns itself to north pole of earth n vice versa true north pole is southpole of magnet. Exact location of places can be done by calculating the magnetic flux density n various other factor . . . . . .
What ice cream flavor starts with the letter i?
Half-Baked ice cream, its my favorite Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor
What happens when you break a bar magnet in half?
Breaking a bar magnet in half creates two smaller magnets, each with a north and south pole. The poles are then found at the broken ends of each new magnet. Additionally, breaking the magnet does not affect the overall magnetic field strength of the original magnet.
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.
What are the parts of bar magnet?
The north pole and the south pole. Half of the magnet is red and the other half is blue.
What can produced electricity?
Well, Many things can produce electricity. An easy way to produce electricity is to get a coil and pass a bar magnet through it.
What happens when a a bar magnet is cut in half?
You now have 2 bar magnets, each with half the magnetic force of the original.
How will the properties of a bar magnet change if it were broken in half?
Field strength will be one half as strong.
How can produce a magnet?
get a choclate bar melt it place in a magnet shaped mold with bits of steel in it and cook and freeze
What happens to a bar magnet when it is cut in half?
Each half will become its own magnet with its own north and south poles. The resulting magnets will have a weaker magnetic field compared to the original bar magnet, as some of the magnetic domain alignment will be disrupted during the cutting process.
When you cut a bar magnet into two half what will be the field strength?
When a bar magnet is cut in half, each half will become a new magnet with its own north and south poles. The magnetic field strength of each half will be approximately half that of the original magnet, but both halves will still exhibit a magnetic field. The overall field strength in the vicinity may remain similar, but the individual magnetic dipoles created will have reduced strength compared to the original magnet.
How the properties of a bar magnet would change if it were broken in half?
If a bar magnet is broken in half, each piece will become its own smaller magnet with its own north and south poles. The strength of each magnet will be weaker compared to the original bar magnet. The overall magnetic field will be distributed between the two smaller magnets.
Bar horse shoe magnet?
in order to produce a uniform magnetic field
What would happen to the magnetic field if the bar magnet were cut in half along the center line?
If a bar magnet is cut in half along the center line, each resulting piece would become its own magnet with its own set of north and south poles. The magnetic field around each piece would be similar to that of a single bar magnet.
