How do you know which is the North face of the magnet?

To find the north pole of a magnet you can use a pole identifier. When the identifier is held to the magnet, you press a button and it will tell you if it is the north or south pole.


How do you find the north and south pole of a magnet?

The north pole of a magnet is attracted to the Earth's geographical North Pole, and the south pole is attracted to the Earth's geographical South Pole. You can also use a compass to find the north and south poles of a magnet - the needle will align with the north pole of the magnet.


How could you find the North Pole of magnet?

You can find the North Pole of a magnet by using a compass. The end of the magnet that points to the north on the compass is the magnet's North Pole. Alternatively, you can use another magnet to determine the poles - opposite poles will attract each other (North attracts South) while like poles will repel each other (North repels North).


How to find positive on a magnet?

Well there isn't any positive or negative on a magnet. But to find North and South, you can suspend a bar magnet on a string and see which way it points, or use a compass. Remember that the North Magnetic Pole defines what Magnetic North is, and on a compass or a bar magnet the SOUTH magnetic pole point at it.


How to find the north side of a magnet without a compass?

To find the north side of a magnet without a compass, you can use the floating needle method. Rub a needle on a magnet and place it on a small piece of paper floating in water. The needle will align itself with the Earth's magnetic field, pointing north.


How do you find north pole in bar magnets?

Use a compass. It will point to a magnet's south pole.


If you were given a magnet with unmarked poles how could you determine which pole was which?

You could use another magnet with marked poles to determine the poles of the unmarked magnet. By observing how the unmarked magnet interacts with the marked magnet, you can identify the north and south poles of the unmarked magnet based on attraction and repulsion.


How to find the North Pole of a ring magnet?

we can find the poles of a ring magnet by tieing thread along the circumference of it and suspend it with a torsionless string then it will allign itself according to earth magnetic field


How can one determine the polarity of a magnet?

To determine the polarity of a magnet, you can use a compass. The end of the magnet that attracts the north pole of the compass is the magnet's north pole, and the end that attracts the south pole of the compass is the magnet's south pole.


You are given a bar magnet how will you find out the west direction?

The sun sets in the West and rises in the East. Unless the bar magnet has its N pole marked, it is of little use, you can get it to point N/S by freely suspending it but you will not be able to tell east from west. The direction the sun is moving is more relevant.


If the labels on a magnet are missing how would you determine which pole is the north pole?

If you have a compass or a magnet with the poles marked, you can bring it near the magnet with the missing labels. The north pole on the unlabeled magnet will repel the north pole on the labeled magnet or the north pole on the compass.


How can you tell which side is which on a magnet?

suspend the magnet from a string at its center of gravity. The north pole of the magnet will point to the north pole. (The north magnetic pole of the earth is actually a south seeking pole.)Another AnswerUse a compass. It's north seeking pole will be attracted towards the magnet's south pole and its south-seeking pole will be attracted towards the magnet's north pole.
