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 else can I help you with?
Why do magnets make a N and S pole when you break a magnet?
When you break a magnet, the regions where the break occurred become the new North and South poles. This is because the magnetic domains within the magnet align themselves in a way that creates these distinct poles at the broken ends.
How can you break a magnet with out breaking in in half?
Cutting a magnet in half can be done in a number of ways. A hack saw might work well (but the cuttings will stick to the magnet and the saw blade). Some magnets can actually be broken in half. But that leaves a "rough" end and is imprecise.
Is it possible to break a magnet into a small enough pieces so that each piece has only one pole?
No..It is not possible to break a magnet into a piece having a single pole..The earth has two poles and in order to divide a magnet of one pole it must be of pico size(10^-12) range or smaller. So for every typical small piece you create, it will automatically form into a dipole or with two poles..
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.
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 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.
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.
Why do magnets make a N and S pole when you break a magnet?
When you break a magnet, the regions where the break occurred become the new North and South poles. This is because the magnetic domains within the magnet align themselves in a way that creates these distinct poles at the broken ends.
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.
What factors that cause permanent magnet not to generate?
Break in the circuit or loss of magnetic strength of the magnet can result in to no generation
What happens when a magnet break?
nothing. It still is mangetized. hohohoh
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.
Is there steel in computers?
yes in the case and most of the drives try it with a magnet just avoid the hard drive with the magnet because these can break them
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 are Factors that causes a permanent magnet generator not to generate emf?
Either the break in the circuit or loss magnetic strength of the magnet - can result into no generation
