If you stack magnets on top of each other, what happens to the magnetic field? Essentially, a stack of magnets will have a greater magnetic field than an individual magnet, right?

If the magnets are oppsoed, the magnetic fields will epxerience resonance, they will interact and repel each other. The magnetic fields around each magnet, though, will reamin intact, if slightly deformed.

If you stack them so that thier feilds attract each other, then something different happens. The magnetic fields will combine, and the magnets will become part of a larger magnet, with its poles at the top of the top magnet, and the bottom of the bottom magnet. The field will pass through and around both magnets.

Correct, the magnetic fields will increase.

pretty basic 2+2=4 2+2+2=6
