I‘m trying to explain to someone the atomic structure of a magnet. Then they asked what makes a magnet attract other atoms?Any answers?And dont give me some bullcrap copy and paste from pedia telling me what a magnet is.
if you know what needs to be done to secure the new lines into place and solder the tubes then repair the walls the answer is YES you can do this yourself . if you are not sure about any thing and sealing up the wall also then the design is good and you need a pro plumber to prevent any leaks and wall damage . you are not required to get a plumber to do the work use a plumber if you are not sure what you are doing .
Don't feel bad. the answer depends on the level of knowledge of both the asker and the answerer. Actually nobody really understands it all. Simple answer: all atoms are magnets, but for most, the effects cancel out on the scale we can see. Iron and a few other materials have unpaired electrons, so their magnetic effects can form small multi atom domains whose effects can add to make what we call a magnet It is observed that magnets exist After a lot of scientific discoveries about electricity in the 1800 and 1900's It was found that: All magnetic effects are the result of electric currents interacting There is no such thing as a Magnet there is electric charge, that is one of the fundamental properties of the universe. static electricity is observed as attraction or (repulsion) of electric charge IF the charges are NOT moving with respect to each other. If there is relative motion between the charges new interaction is observed which we call magnetic. all electrons have the property called spin which has the effect of producing magnetic effects Electric current involves the motion of electric charges. that is how we use magnetism. The study of electromagnetism requires about two years at the college level to understand what we do and do not know about it. pedia is woefully inadequate to explain physics in any detail
A bar made of magnetic material is made of tiny atoms that are polarized, meaning they have one side that is a positive pole and one side that has a negative pole, like a bunch of little tiny magnets. For example, when you make a needle magnetic by rubbing a magnet onto it, you are actually aligning all the atoms in the same direction, as opposed to the disorder they where in before. This causes a net effect of one side being magnetically positive, and the other negative. After understanding that, then it is all simple magnetism attracting or repelling the fields of similar materials.
Go to your local hardware store and tell them what you are doing and have them to give you some PEX tubing and some shark bites. Very easy and no solder needed.
