How can you show that the geographic north pole behaves the same way as a magnetic south pole?
By dancing on the planet Earth...that's how.
The earth is meaning it has 2 poles?
The Earth has a magnetic field around it. The magnetic North is close to what we call the North Pole. The magnetic South is at the South Pole. There is a magnetic North and South and a geographic North and South pole.
Why do you need two North Poles?
== == Earth happens to have two North poles, but it is not necessary. * The geographic north pole is one of the two places where the axis of rotation meets the surface. All planets and stars have one geographic north pole and one geographic south pole. * The north magnetic pole is the point where the magnetic field points directly down, and the south magnetic pole is the point where the magnetic field points directly up. Earth happens to have one magnetic north pole and one magnetic south pole at the moment. Mars doesn't have any magnetic poles. Our sun often has dozens of magnetic north and magnetic south poles in or near its sunspots.
How is the magnetic North Pole different from the geographic North Pole?
Magnetic north pole is where your compass will point. Geographic North pole is at the "top" of the globe. If you put a pole straigh thru the earth from the north pole to the south it would be a straigh line.Magnetic north and south poles can and do move because the eath's magnetic field flucuates.The geographical or 'true'' north pole is the point where the Earth's axis line touches the Earth's northernmost surface. That is somewhere in the (northern) Arctic Ocean.The location of the magnetic north (and south) pole 'travel around' over time. Today the magnetic south pole - strange as it may sound - is located in the north of Canada, the magnetic north pole in southern Antarctica.
What point on earth is the only place from which all directions face south?
The North Pole - because whatever direction you walk in away from it you will always be heading south. The North Magnetic Pole that is. Geographic North Pole is the correct answer. The magnetic pole is actually not in alignment with the geographic one.

How do you know that earth behaves like a huge bar magnet?
A compass always points north as the south magnetic pole is located at the geographic north pole.

Are the locations of the magnetic South Pole and the geographic North Pole near Antarctica or the Arctic?
Anything north is Arctic, anything south is Antarctic.

Are the North Pole and the geographic North Pole always the same distance apart?
No. The magnetic pole wanders quite a bit - even towards the south rotational pole at times.
Are the magnetic pole and the geographic north pole always the same distance apart?
The Geographic Poles are fixed at the earth's axis of rotation. The Magnetic Poles are located within a few hundred kilometres, but wander. The magnetic polarity of Magnetic North (the location) is south, which is why it attracts the north pole of a compass needle.
What pole is positive?
The answer is The South Pole of the Earth. The geographic South Pole is Magnetic North (positive) Pole and vice verse
Where are the magnetic North Pole and the geographic North Pole located?
magnetic south pole is closer to the geographic north pole..... that's why north pole of bar magnet when suspended free in air shows the north direction...
What is the main difference between North Pole and South Pole?
The North Magnetic and Geographic Poles are on a floating ice pack although the Magnetic North Pole can be located on a Canadian Island.
