If you have any two magnets, you can always make them attract each other
or repel each other. It just depends on how you arrange them.
Every magnet has two ends, with exactly opposite characteristics. If you hang
a magnet up from a thread and wait until it settles down, one end points north
and the other end points south.
If you stick labels on the ends to identify them as the ' N ' end and the ' S ' end,
then the ' N ' ends or the ' S ' ends of any two magnets always repel, but one
' N ' end and one ' S ' end of two different magnets always attract.

How are magnetism and gravity similar?
Magnetism and gravity are two fundamental forces in nature.The Shell Theorem can prove both magnetic and gravitational forces.Gravitational forces are always attractive. However, magnetic forces can be either attractive or repulsive. Both forces decay as the square of the distance between particles forming a couple.
Does light produce both electric and magnetic field?
light exhibit magnetic field but i cant say about electric Field...
Why an electromagnetic wave is able to produce both an electric field and a magnetic field because?
The question founders on the rocks of a chicken/egg conundrum. The presence of both an electric field and a magnetic field is required in order to produce an electromagnetic wave.
What is formed around both magnets in a motor?
A magnetic field.
If a magnetic dipole is placed in a magnetic field the dipole is found to have both rotational and translational motion.what would you infer about the magnetic field?
Dipole not aligned with B field = rotational motion B field not constant along field direction = translational motion
What force gravitational or electrical repels as well as attracts?
The gravitational force is only attractive. Electric and magnetic forces can be both attractive and repulsive.
Is gravity a magnetic force?
No. Magnetism and gravity are quite different forces. For starters, gravity acts on all masses, and the amount of force depends only on the masses and the distance - and it is always attractive. The magnetic force depends on the material, and it can be both attractive and repulsive, depending on the orientation.No. Magnetism and gravity are quite different forces.

How is an attractive force the same as a repulsive force between two objects?
They both create an acceleration.
This is a force where objects are attracted or repelled to one another?
Gravitational force exists between masses. Gravitational force is only of attractive. No repulsive gravitational force has been found so far. But in electrostatics and magnetism, the force between electric charges and magnetic poles respectively are of both repulsive and attractive. Nuclear force between the nucleons within the nucleus of the atom is also attractive in nature.
Is an electric charged attractive or repulsive?
Both. Opposite charges attract, like charges repulse.
Is magnetic field a scalar or density quantity?
A magnetic field is neither: it is a vector field with both direction and quantity.

How is newtons law different from coulombs law?
Both have the concept of variation of force inversely with the square of the distance. But in case of coulomb we have electric charges and in case of newton's gravitation law we have masses. Coulomb's force can be either attractive and repulsive where as Newton's is only attractive
The gravitational force is always attractive while the electric force is both attractive and repulsive. what accounts for this difference?
All mass has the same sign, while electric charge can be either positive or negative.
Why is a vibrating electric field an example of an electromagnetic wave?
The changing electric field will produce a magnetic field; the changing magnetic field will cause an electric field; both will propagate as a wave - an electro-magnetic wave.
Creates a magnetic field?
Both magnetic materials and moving electric charges induce magnetic fields.
