The orientation of two bar magnets that would attract each other and two bar magnets that would repel each other?
Yes, because the keepers are made up of iron, when the magnet is in contact with it they become temporary magnet. Keepers also have a useful safety function as they stop external metal being attracted to the magnet.
If the north pole of the bar magnet suspends the first nail by attraction what is the nail's polarity?
When turned on, yes they do. Even after turned off, some of the charge from the electricity involved will have slightly changed the material that is magnetized. The poles will be there, yet seldom very strong.
How do bar magnets work?
Bar magnets work by having magnetic domains aligned in the same direction within the material. This alignment creates a magnetic field around the magnet that can attract or repel other magnetic materials. When two bar magnets are brought close together, their magnetic fields interact, causing them to either attract (if the poles are opposite) or repel (if the poles are the same).
What will happen when the south pole ends of two bar magnets come together?
When the south poles of two bar magnets come together, they will repel each other due to their like magnetic poles. This force will push the magnets away from each other, preventing the south poles from directly touching.
How to find positive on a magnet?
To determine the positive and negative poles on a magnet, you can use a compass. The end of the magnet that attracts the north pole of a compass is the magnet's south pole, and the end that attracts the south pole of a compass is the magnet's north pole. Label these accordingly as positive and negative, or north and south poles.
How do you find north pole in bar magnets?
Use a compass. It will point to a magnet's south pole.
How should 2 bar magnets be placed on a table so that they repel each other?
Place the two bar magnets with opposite poles facing each other (North pole of one magnet facing South pole of the other magnet). This will create a repelling force between the magnets.
Why do magnets always align in N-S direction?
Magnets align in a north-south direction due to the magnetic field lines that surround them. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet, aligning them in that orientation. This phenomenon occurs to minimize the potential energy stored in the system.
A bar magnet if cut in half consists of two magnets each with one south and one north pole this is evidence that the atoms of a magnet are like?
small magnets lined up north to south
Does every magnet necessarily have a north and a south pole?
Yes,every magnet has a north pole and a south pole.IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE SOUTH AND THE NORTH POLES :If you have a magnet and you make a line exactly in the middle you will see that one side is the north pole and the other one is a south pole . You can even experiment this : when you are done drawing a line cut your magnet by that line . Do you think that you will have two magnets and one of them is south pole and the other one is the north pole . Well no !!!!!! You will have two magnets but both of them have south and north poles.Now:Remember , you know this magnets attach to each other .But north pole and an other north pole will never attach to each other.And the same thing goes for the south poles. Two south poles will never atach.Only two different poles will attach to each other ( north and south will attach, and south and north will attach to each other as well).ALL magnets have one north pole and one south pole.
Do horse shoe magnets have separate poles?
Yes, horseshoe magnets have two poles just like bar magnets - a north pole and a south pole. The poles are located at the ends of the horseshoe shape.
The orientation of two bar magnets that would attract each other and two bar magnets that would repel each other?
Yes, because the keepers are made up of iron, when the magnet is in contact with it they become temporary magnet. Keepers also have a useful safety function as they stop external metal being attracted to the magnet.
What ar magnets made from?
Magnets are made from a rock called magnetite. For example we will take a bar magnet it is made up of tiny bar magnets, they are called magnetic domains. Magnetic domains only exist in special kinds of metals such as iron, nickel and cobalt. Other metals like aluminium or copper don't have magnetic domains. Magnets have south poles and north poles. For example a south pole will only attract a north pole of another magnet and a south pole will repel the south pole of another magnet. The science of this is that like poles repel and unlike poles attract. The earth is a complete magnet and is the largest magnet in the world. It is complete with a north pole and a south pole.
Do bar magnets have south and north poles?
Yes. All magnets of north and south poles. There is no such thing as a magnetic monopole.
What is the proper name for the ends of magnets?
The ends of a bar magnet are generally called the north and south poles. However they are more accurately known as the North Attracting pole and the South Attracting pole as the respective ends of the magnet are drawn to the Earths north and south poles.
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.
What are bar mangnets?
long magnets (in the shape of a bar) with a north and south angel
