Magnets: The Perfect Pair! 🧲
Did you know? With magnets, opposite poles like North and South are totally into each other! But if you try to bring two of the same poles together (North-North or South-South), they’ll “hate each other’s guts” and push away!
✂️ Cutting a Magnet – Not Splitting, but Cloning!
Imagine this: if you cut a magnet in half, would you get one North piece and one South piece?
Nope! Magnetism doesn’t come from a single spot—it’s the result of millions of tiny magnetic regions (even down to the atomic level) all aligned throughout the magnet.
So when you cut it, each new piece keeps that alignment—and boom! each chunk instantly has its own North and South poles. Cut it again? You’ll just get more mini magnets, each with their own North-South pair!
🔍 Takeaway Lesson:
In nature, there’s no such thing as a magnetic “monopole”—you’ll never find a North or South pole all by itself. They always come as a pair… like peanut butter and jelly!
