Assuming it has a robust rigid construction so it doesn't break easily :

Nothing.

If it is hit hard or even dropped repeatedly however, it will put the atoms out of position and lose the magnetism

When you rub a magnet with metal what happens to the metal object?

When you rub a magnet with metal, the metal object becomes temporarily magnetized. This happens because the atoms in the metal align with the magnetic field of the magnet. However, once the magnet is removed, the metal object loses its magnetism.


What happens when a compass is brought closer to a magnet?

When a compass is brought closer to a magnet, the compass needle will align itself with the magnetic field of the magnet. This alignment occurs because the magnetic field of the compass interacts with the magnetic field of the magnet, causing the needle to point towards the magnet.


Heating or hitting a perminant magnent can ruin it?

Heating a permanent magnet beyond its Curie temperature can demagnetize it by disrupting the alignment of its magnetic domains. It is best to avoid hitting permanent magnets as well, as this physical shock can also disrupt the alignment of the domains and potentially weaken the magnet's magnetic field.


What happens to a magnet if you freeze it too much?

If a magnet is frozen too much, it can lose its magnetism temporarily. This is due to the rearrangement of molecules inside the magnet, disrupting its magnetic field. Once the magnet warms up to room temperature, its magnetism may return.


What happens when you rub a needle on a magnet?

Rubbing a needle on a magnet will align the domains within the needle in the same direction as the magnetic field of the magnet. This causes the needle to become magnetized and exhibit magnetic properties itself.
