Cut one in half, and see if the two bits attract or repel one another. If they do, you have cut the magnet. Otherwise the rod. If you are allowed other equipment, you don't need to cut anything. Make a coil, connect to a meter, and see which rod, when pushed in and out of the coil, induces a current.

How does a magnet work in space?

In space, a magnet works the same way as it does on Earth. A magnet creates a magnetic field around it that attracts or repels other magnetic materials. This is because the movement of charged particles within the magnet creates a magnetic force. In space, the lack of air or gravity does not affect the magnet's ability to create a magnetic field.


What is the space around a magnet where the forces of the magnet act?

The space around a magnet where the force of the magnet can act is the space occupied by the magnetic field. Alternatively we say that the magnetic field acts in the space around a magnet. That is a very qualitative statement with little predictive value. More predictive value is contained in a statement that the strength of the magnetic field at any position in the vicinity of a magnet is measured by the torque which is exerted on a small magnet moment (compass) place in the vicinity of a magnet. This, recorded with the direction the test compass points is actually a mapping of the magnetic field of a magnet. As a side note, if carefully measured one discovers that strength of the field around a magnet decreases as the inverse cube of the distance when far from the magnet. The field is mostly in the volume near the magnet but the weakening field continues to exist at all distances from the magnet.


What is the best term that describes the space surrounding a magnet in which the magnet force acts?

The best term to describe the space surrounding a magnet in which the magnet force acts is "magnetic field." The magnetic field is a region around a magnet where magnetic forces are exerted on other magnets or magnetic materials.


What is the record for the longest using time of the magnet space wheel?

As of now, the record for the longest use of a magnet space wheel is 44 hours and 20 minutes.


What mf is the space around a magnet where it had an effect?

The magnetic field is the space around a magnet where its influence can be detected. This field exerts a force on other magnets or on moving charges. It is strongest closest to the magnet and decreases in strength as you move further away.

The space around a magnet where the force of the magnet acts is a?

magnetic field. The magnetic field is the region in which the magnetic force generated by the magnet can exert influence on other objects or materials.


What is the space all around a magnet called?

The space around a magnet where its magnetic influence can be felt is called the magnetic field. It is the region in which magnetic forces are experienced due to the presence of the magnet.
