What do mechanical and chemical weathering have in common?
What mechanical and chemical weathering have in common is they both break rocks down into smaller and smaller pieces. Eventually the weathered rock will be eroded.
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.
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.
How do you destroy clay?
To destroy or break down clay, you can dry it out completely, making it brittle and easier to crush. Once dry, you can use a hammer or another heavy object to break it into smaller pieces. Additionally, soaking the clay in water can help dissolve it, especially for clay that is not fired. Afterward, you can further process the remnants by mixing them with other materials or discarding them appropriately.
If you break a magnet do you get two smaller magnets?
Yes, you actually do get two smaller magnets, and each has a north and south 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 when you smash?
Pyrite is brittle and non-malleable. It will break into smaller pieces along cleavage planes.
When you break an iron magnet into two pieces you get what?
You get two smaller magnets. Each piece will still have its own north and south poles, making them individual magnets.
If a bar magnet is broke in the middle and pieces are held near why do they repel did the bar magnet pieces flip poles when it broke?
sort of. magnetic fields in a bar magnet always run south to north. if you break it in half, that same S-->N direction still applies. in fact if you were to break it up into smaller & small pieces you would still have that relationship. that is to say, you wouldn't have a north only piece and a south only piece.
What happens if a magnet cracks?
When a magnet cracks, it can lose its magnetic properties and strength due to the disruption of its internal structure. The fracture may cause the magnet to demagnetize partially or completely, depending on the extent of the damage. Additionally, the magnet may break into smaller pieces, which can each retain some magnetic properties but may not be as strong as the original magnet. In some cases, a cracked magnet can also pose a safety risk, as sharp edges may form.
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.
How rocks break to smaller pieces?
By weathering.
How does breaking a magnet change its magnetic properties?
Breaking a magnet into smaller pieces weakens its overall magnetic field, as each piece becomes a separate magnet with its own north and south poles. The smaller magnets may have different magnetic strengths and orientations compared to the original magnet.
What happens when a magnet break?
nothing. It still is mangetized. hohohoh
When you break the magnet then why they repls?
The magnetism of a permanent magnet is caused by the magnetic alignement of individual atoms in the crystal structure of the ferromagnetic material. You can break a magnet into thousands of pieces and each tiny piece is a magnet with north and south poles. Each piece will attract or repel any of the other pieces depending on how they are oriented to one another.
What happens when you mix water with pyrite?
Pyrite is brittle and non-malleable. It will break into smaller pieces along cleavage planes.
