What else can I help you with?
Can you cut a magnet and the magnet still work?
No. You'll end up with two smaller magnets, and each will have less than half the magnetic field strength of the original magnet.
What will happen when a piece of bar magnet is broken into a few smaller pieces?
by the force of attraction in magnet their pieces will re join wd each other. All the broken pieces will become separate individual magnets.
Can a magnet be broken?
Not exactly. All pieces of the magnet retain their ferrous properties, but if they were (for example) dropped, then the shock of the fall could potentially make them lose a bit of magnetism. Extreme temperature changes and high power electric discharges could also decrease the power of the magnet.
You are given a small plotting compass and three grey metal bars one is aluminum one is iron one is magnet how can i identify each one?
The bar that affects the compass is the magnet, The bar that is attracted to the magnet is iron, and the bar that is not attracted to the magnet is aluminum.
How do magnets stick to iron shavings?
The iron shavings get temporarily magnetized, due to the influence of the magnet. Thus, you have two magnets attracting each other - the original magnet, and a piece of iron shaving.
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.
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.
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 happens when magnet is broken in half?
when a magnet breaks in half on one side the broken side turns into the negative side and the unbroken side stays posotive ( works vice versa) so the point is you get two complete magnets.
How will the properties of a bar magnet change if it were broken in half?
Field strength will be one half as strong.
Do opposite ends of a magnet attract or repel?
Then you will end up with two magnets, each half will be a new magnet, with both a north and a south pole. But the magnet will be weaker.
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. 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. 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. If you cut the magnet in half, each half will still have a north pole and a half pole.
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.
Will the permanent magnet broken into two pieces attract each other on the broken sides?
no as the broken will repeal as they form same poles
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.
What happens when you break a magnet in half?
Breaking a magnet in half does not result in two separate magnets. Instead, each piece becomes its own magnet with a north and south pole. The strength of the magnetic field in each piece may diminish depending on the quality and material of the original magnet.
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.
