SOME FACTS ABOUT THE MAGNETS

Being heated a magnet loses some or all of its magnetism. A magnet being broken in two, each piece becomes a magnet with its own pair of poles. This subdivision could be carried on until we were down to the

17

smallest particle of iron, a molecule. Conversely, two identical bar magnets being brought end to end with opposite poles in close contact, the poles touching seem to disappear and we have but two poles at the extreme ends. A tube of iron filings may be magnetizid by stroking it with a magnet in the usual way. The filings being shaken, the magnetism disappears.

СThese facts give rise to the very plausible theory of magnetism gen-

erally accepted. We know iron molecules to be magnets at all times. When they are arranged in a bar oа steel or iron so that the fields of force of all or most of the molecules are in the same direction, their fields are added to one another and the bar is a magnet. The little magnet molecules form chains, their poles disappearing except at the ends of the chain. This condition is not an equilibrium condition because of the like poles in adjacent chains repelling each other. The rigidity of steel holds the molecules in this

и position. InбАsoft iron, however, as soon as we take the bar out of the mag-

netizing field, the molecules adjust themselves on account of the repulsions of like poles of molecules in adjacent chains, leaving the iron unmagnetized. We can see why hard steel makes permanent magnets and soft iron dors not.

We can also explain why soft iron has a higher permeability than steel. When placed in a magnetic field, the molecules of steel do not readily turn around in the direction of the lines of force. But this alignment is necessary if the body is to absorb lines of force. Heating which increases

filing – наполнитель, прокладка; Д plausible – вероятный, правдоподобный, благовидный; equilibrium – равновесие;

molecular motion, or jarring causes a magnet to be demagnetizid due to its permitting the molecules to adjust themselves to the equilibrium position.

adjacent – смежный, примыкающий, соседний; repel – отталкивать;

rigidity – жесткость;

pole – полюс, like (opposite(unlike)) poles – одноименные (разноимен-

ные) полюсы;

alignment – выравнивание, выверка, настройка, регулировка.

9. Переведите на английский язык следующий текст:

Нагревание магнита приводит к потере им магнетизма. Если разделить магнит на две части, то каждая из них остается магнитом, т.е. каждая часть будет иметь свою пару полюсов. И наоборот, если соединить два магнита, то в результате получится один большой магнит. Общепринятая теория магнетизма легко объясняет ряд очень интересных явлений. Например, почему твердая сталь обладает постоянными магн тными свойствами, в то время как мягкое железо лишено их. Также на основании этой теории можно объяснить более высокую магн тную прон цаемость мягкого железа по сравнению со ста-

Student: If a piece of iron is placed in the coil, the iron will become magnetized by the electromagnetic field and an electromagnet is produced. Demonstrator: When would the iron be demagnetized?

Student: If the electron flow through the coil ceased, the magnetic field would collapse and the iron would no longer be magnetized. Demonstrator: What can you say about permeability and retentivity in soft iron and steel?
