How to Destroy a Magnet

The video tutorial explains the principles of magnetism, including ferromagnetism, anti-ferromagnetism, and paramagnetism. It describes how magnetic atoms align to create magnetic fields and how temperature affects these alignments. The tutorial also covers how to destroy a magnet by heating it past its Curie temperature, causing the atomic magnetic fields to become disordered. Different elements transition from ferromagnetic to paramagnetic at various temperatures, which can be explored using an interactive periodic table.
