AnswersDriveThe magnetic field of a bar magnet is strongest at either pole of the magnet. It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole. The force is weaker in the middle of the magnet and halfway between the pole and the center.
Similarly one may ask, which location is Earth's magnetic field the strongest?
Inclination angle: The angle at which the magnetic field lines intersect the surface of the earth. This angle ranges from 0 degrees at the equator to 90 degrees at the poles. Intensity: The magnetic field also varies in strength over the earth's surface. It is strongest at the poles and weakest at the equator.
Which are the strongest magnets?
Neodymium magnets: the super-strong ones. Neodymium is a rare earth metal and a special material: Combined with iron and boron it creates the currently strongest permanent magnets in the world.

Where is the magnetic field of a bar magnet the strongest?
This shows the field lines around a disk magnet where the North pole is at the top. This shows the magnetic field strength around the disk magnet. Again, it is strongest in the corners, not in the center of the poles! The magnetic field is weakest in the middle of its poles!

What would happen if you cut a magnet in half?
You can think of a magnet as a bundle of tiny magnets, called magnetic domains, that are jammed together. Each one reinforces the magnetic fields of the others. Each one has a tiny north and south pole. If you cut one in half, the newly cut faces will become the new north or south poles of the smaller pieces.
3
Is the Earth a magnet?
Earth's magnetic field, also known as the geomagnetic field, is the magnetic field that extends from the Earth's interior out into space, where it meets the solar wind, a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun. Its magnitude at the Earth's surface ranges from 25 to 65 microteslas (0.25 to 0.65 gauss).
4
How a magnet can be demagnetized?
Apply AC Current To Demagnetize a Magnet. One way to make a magnet is by applying an electrical field (electromagnet), so it makes sense you can use alternating current to remove magnetism, too. To do this, you pass AC current through a solenoid. Start with a higher current and slowly reduce it until it's zero.
5
What is each curved line around a magnet called?
magnetic domain. Magnetic field lines around a bar magnet. B. spread out from the poles and curved around the magnet. A solenoid with a ferromagnetic core is called a(n) A.
6
How can two magnets demonstrate magnetic force?
Your instructor will demonstrate a magnet placed against cassette tape every produces magnetic field that is if opposite poles of two separate magnets are facing each other, both feel the same force but. North and south poles of two magnets attract each other, while north or repel other.
7
How are the poles of a magnet labeled?
The 'North pole' of any magnet is the one that would be attracted to the earth's North magnetic pole. In that sense, they are just labels that identify the opposite magnetic force produced at each end of the magnet. The earth's magnetic field also has poles, North and South.
8
What do you call the end of a magnet?
The opposite end is called the south pole. The needle of a compass is itself a magnet, and thus the north pole of the magnet always points north, except when it is near a strong magnet. The rule for magnetic poles is that like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other.

What is the strength of the magnetic field?
Magnetic field strength is one of two ways that the intensity of a magnetic field can be expressed. Technically, a distinction is made between magnetic field strength H, measured in amperes per meter (A/m), and magnetic flux density B, measured in Newton-meters per ampere (Nm/A), also called teslas (T).
10
What is the difference between a permanent magnet and an induced magnet?
Magnets are atomic powered. The difference between a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet is in their atomic structures. Permanent magnets have their atoms aligned all the time. Temporary magnets have their atoms aligned only while under the influence of a strong external magnetic field.
11
What is the name of a natural magnet?
A lodestone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, which can attract iron. The property of magnetism was first discovered in antiquity through lodestones.
12
How is the magnetic field different from the electric field?
An electric field has a force proportional to the amount of electric charge within the field, and the force is in the direction of the electric field. On the other hand, force of the magnetic field is proportional to the electric charge as well, but also takes into account the speed of the moving charge.
13
Why is there a magnetic field around the Earth?
In the Earth (see image below right), the liquid metal that makes up the outer core passes through a magnetic field, which causes an electric current to flow within the liquid metal. The electric current, in turn, creates its own magnetic field—one that is stronger than the field that created it in the first place.
14
Why does a compass needle deflected when brought near a bar magnet?
Compass needle gets deflected in presence of bar magnet because it is made like that to reflect in presence of magnetism. It gets deflected on earth towards north also because of a huge magnetism of earth.
15
Which elements are magnetic?
Ferromagnetic materials. Ferromagnetic materials are strongly attracted by a magnetic force. The elements iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and gadolinium (Gd) are such materials. (See the Periodic Table in the Chemistry section for more information on the elements.)
16
What is the strength of the Earth's magnetic field?
Its magnitude at the Earth's surface ranges from 25 to 65 microtesla (0.25 to 0.65 gauss). Roughly speaking it is the field of a magnetic dipole currently tilted at an angle of about 10 degrees with respect to Earth's rotational axis, as if there were a bar magnet placed at that angle at the center of the Earth.
17
Can we use the Earth's magnetic field to generate electricity?
A magnetic field alone doesn't create electricity. A changing magnetic field does. The Earth's magnetic field is quite homogeneous over short distances though so the coil would need to move fast and very far to generate much. This would use more energy than it creates (at least on the surface of the Earth).
18
Do any other planets have a magnetic field?
Probes found that Mars and Venus do not have a significant magnetic field. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all have magnetic fields much stronger than that of the Earth. Jupiter is the champion- having the largest magnetic field. The mechanism that causes their magnetic fields is not fully understood.
19
Why are the poles of a magnet stronger?
Why the Magnetic Force Is Strongest at the North and South Poles. Iron filings make a pattern tracing field lines because each bit of iron is itself a tiny dipole. Because the magnetic field changes so dramatically, a dipole feels more force.
20
What is used to represent a magnetic field on a diagram?
Magnetic fields. Magnets have a north pole and a south pole. You can use plotting compasses to show the direction and shape of a magnetic field. In diagrams of magnetic field the arrows on the lines show the direction from the north to the south poles.
