Where are the earth's magnetic poles?
Deep within the earth, along an axis which 'wobbles' around the earth's axis of rotation. This causes the locations called 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' to shift relative to the locations called 'True North' and 'True South'. The magnetic polarities of the locations 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are south and north, respectively.
What U.S. state does not lie within the continent of north America?

Does Earth's geographic North Poles and magnetic North Pole locations coincide?
The earth's Geographic Poles are located at the earth's axis of rotation. The earth's Magnetic Poles are located nearby (within a few hundred kilometres), but not at a fixed location because they 'wander'. The magnetic polarity of the location we call 'Magnetic North' is south because it attracts the 'north (-seeking)' pole of a magnet or compass needle.

How could you prove that the magnetic southpole is in Antarctica?
With great difficulty. The South Magnetic Pole is currently located about 200 km from Dumont D'Urville off the coast of Antarctica in the Southern Ocean, due south of Adelaide, Australia. It is moving at about 5 km per year in a north to northwesterly direction. It has not been located "on" the Antarctic continent for some years and is not even within the Antarctic Circle.
