Title: What happens to magnets when like poles are placed together?
1What happens to magnets when like poles are
placed together?
2How can you tell that a paperclip has been made
into a temporary magnet?
- The paperclip will attract another paperclip or
many metal that is normally attracted to magnet.
3What does it mean if the Magnetic Field Viewer
shows that a magnet has more than two poles?
- The magnet is made up of more than 1 magnet.
4How many poles does a single magnet have?
5What happens to the poles of a magnet if it is
cut in half?
- The two parts each become magnets having a North
and South Pole.
6What properties do objects attracted by a magnet
all have in common?
- They are all made of metal.
7What happens to magnets when unlike poles are
placed together?
8Which magnet showed that it had more than 2
magnets when viewed under the Magnetic Field
Viewer?
9What will happen to a magnet if it is dropped on
a hard surface?
- The magnet will become demagnetized.
10What can be made into a temporary magnet?
- Any metal object that is attracted to a magnet.
11Name some things that magnetism will pass through
Sponge
Brass Bar
Plastic
Tongue Depressor
Wooden Bar
12Which part of the magnet has the strongest pull?
- The North and South Poles
13What will happen if the South pole of 1 magnets
is brought together with the North pole of
another magnet?
14How can you make a temporary magnet out of a nail?
- Rub the nail with a magnet
- repeatedly in the same direction.
15What would the domains look like inside a
paperclip that was made into a temporary magnet
but then hit with a hammer?
16What is a temporary magnet?
- When a metal object becomes a magnet only for a
short time.
17How can you measure the strength of a magnet?
1.Take a paperclip and make a hook out of it.
- 2. Allow the hook to attract to a magnet.
3. Once it is attracted to the magnet, hang
paperclips on the hooked paperclip. Do this until
the hooked paperclip falls from the magnet.
- 4. Count the number of paperclips that the hooked
- paperclip held before it fell. The magnet that
holds - the most is the strongest.
18What will happen if the South poles of 2 separate
magnets are brought together?
19Which picture best represents the magnetic field
around a magnet?
20What is a magnetic field?
- The invisible field around a
- magnet. It is made up of lines of
- force, which form closed loops
- from pole to pole.
21How can a magnet become demagnetized?
- By dropping it on a hard surface
By hitting it with a hard object
By heating it
22Name the 3 types of metals that are attracted to
a magnet
Cobalt
Nickel
