Where are the poles on a fridge magnet?
The poles on a spherical magnet are at the positive side and the negative side. Just like that of our earth which has both a north and south pole. The magnetic field is described as loops going from the north pole too the south pole, just as a normal bar magnet would behave. However a spherical electromagnet can be made such that the poles are constantly changing and never in one spot for too long. The answer to your question is impossible without more information or experimentation with the magnet. An easy way to test which is north and south is to hang the magnet on a string and then positively or negatively charge a nylon rod by rubbing a material on it(google which will make it negative or positivel) and hold it near all the sides. One side will be repulsed then that would be the sign of whatever the rod is charged with. I hope that this long winded answer helps.As a note north is positive and south is negative
What is the effect make magnet interact with another magnet?
their magnetic poles atract the opposite charge in order to optain the other charge. therefore they pull together to conect with a negative(-) and positive(+) because one end is filled with negative but needs positive and vise versa so when you put a + and + they don't need each other so the pushaway,same goes with negative poles
What to do if swallowed a magnet?
Make sure you don't swallow another magnet whatever you do. Contact your doctor.
Why doesn't a magnet affect stationary charge particle?
I'm no expert but it has something to do with positive and negative charges.
What type of magnet can only attract materials when it is touching another magnet?
Metals not magnetic, but permeable will become magnets when near or touching a permanent magnet. You can stroke some metals in the same direction repeatedly on a magnet and make it a magnet.
What force does two similar ends of a magnet make?
negative & positive
Does a positive magnet attch to a negative?
Yes
What is the charge of a magnet's north pole?
We all know that the magnet has north and south poles, but there is no charge for any pole of them. We say north and south in magnetism, positive and negative in electrostatic.
Why do poles on a magnet attract and repel?
Poles on a magnet attract or repel because of the way the electrons line up. The electrons in the valence shells tend to line up on one side of the nucleus. The electrons have a negative charge and the nucleus has a positive charge. The negative charges in one magnet repel the negative charges in another magnet but attract the positive charges in another magnet.
What are the 2 sides of a magnet called?
Positive and Negative
What HAPPEND when you negative and negatives magnets touch?
Negative and negative sides of a magnet do not touch. opposites attract. Negative and positives touch.
Why can magnet attract steel paperclip?
the motion of negative electrical charge (negative electrons) surrounding the magnet combines with vegetables and as a result, polar bears will have awesome sex with the pope.
Names of the two different sides of a magnet?
positive and negative
What is water an example of because of its positive and negative sides?
a magnet
Examples for unlike charges attract each other?
positive attract negative positive push away another positive negative push away another negative
A magnet has both a positive side and a negative side. can you just have a magnet that is positive?
No, no matter what, magnets have poles. In other words, magnets will always have a positive and negative side. If you cut you magnet in half, those two new magnets will both have + and - sides. Do this infinity times until you have a magnet 1 atom thick. The atom will still have a positive and negative pole. Hope this helps.
How is water molecule like a magnet?
Water molecule acts like a magnet because positive attracts positive and negative attracts negative.
