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.

What happens when you break a magnet into smaller pieces?
You get a bunch of smaller magnets and you will still have north pole.
What happens if you put a magnet on a lamp?
It depends on the type of lamp and the strength of the magnet. An incandescent lamp works literally by running current through the filament to heat it. Parts of the bulb might be magnetic, so if the magnet were ridiculously powerful it might deform or break them. Fluorescent and Neon lamps use ionization, so although I haven't tried it, I'd bet a reasonably strong magnet might affect them. If you have an old CRT-based television or computer monitor you can see how this works by placing a magnet near it -- note, this can cause permanent effects to the picture quality, so either keep the magnet at a distance where the effect is minimal or use a CRT you don't care about. LED lamps are so small and well-constructed that I think they're more like incandescent lamps -- a really powerful magnet might damage them, but otherwise is unlikely to affect them.
Will a compass break?
If you smash it with a hammer, drop it off a high cliff or otherwise mechanically destroy it, yes it will break. You can also cause it to cease to function correctly by altering the magnet in the compass tip.
What happens if you don't remove a Trojan horse virus?
your computer will soon break down
Why does the magnet attract iron objects?
the magnet attracts to iron by the magnetic field both the iron and the magnet have
What happens when a magnet break?
nothing. It still is mangetized. hohohoh
What happens when you break a magnet into smaller pieces?
You get a bunch of smaller magnets and you will still have north pole.
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.
If you break a magnet into two pieces what happens to its magnetic poles?
Think of the two ples of a magnet like two sides of a coin. One cannot exist without the other.
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.
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.
Can magnet break a glass?
No, magnets do not have the ability to break glass. Glass is not a magnetic material, so the force of a magnet is not strong enough to break it.
What happens when you rust a magnet?
the magnet gets weaker
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.
Do magnets lose their power?
No.If you break the magnet, it is still a useful magnet.
What happens when steel nails come in contact with magnet?
the nail goes to the magnet
What happens when heating a magnet?
it will loose its magnesium
