It heavily depends how the exact setup is. In most cases you will be able to see an amplitude of the compass which will quickly go into a stable position (compared to the original position of the compass)
A compass is a small magnet. The needle has a "North" end and a "South" end. The needle responds to a magnetic field by rotating so that the North end of the magnet points towards the South direction of the magnetic field and vice versa.
A stationary magnetic field from any source extends in a region around that source and has a strength and a direction at every point in space. The direction can be determined by the direction of the compass needle. When the magnetic field influencing the compass is due to a permanent magnet, by moving the compass around and following the direction in which it points, one can follow the direction of the field to the North and South poles of the permanent magnet.
The Earth has its own magnetic field. With no other influences, the North end of a compass will point to the North magnetic pole of the Earth and the South end to the South magnetic pole. The North and South magnetic poles of the Earth are near, but not exactly located at the North an South geographic poles which are determined by the axis of rotation of the Earth. (Yes, that means that the magnet which is inside the Earth has its South magnetic end pointing up in the North geographic direction.)
The magnet overwhelms the earth's magnetic field,
and the compass points toward the magnet.
the compass's needle will point at the electromagnet
The compass's magnetic field will be disturbed, and the end will follow the magnet.
Being small the needle is sensitive towards small magnetc fields. When an electromagnet is brought, the needle gets affected by the magnetic field and hence it spins.
The compasses northpole will repel or attract either of the poles depending on it is north or south pole
Then the compass would react according to the magnetic field of the magnet.
The magnet will cause the needle to point towards the magnet, so giving a wrong reading.
The compass needle is magnetic so if you place a magnet near the compass, the needle will change direction either attracting or reppeling.
No. Being near a magnet (or magnetic field) completely puts off the compass as the compass is influenced by it and will not align with the Earth's natural magnetic field.
The compass needle is itself a magnet which is why it always points north according to the earth's magnetic field. If you place a magnet (Whose magnetic power is stronger than the earth's) close to the compass its needle will be attracted t the magnet and not to the North Pole.
The compass would point south, except near positive end of the magnet. It will point north. 6th grade power!!
The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other. More specifically, the north pole of one magnet is attracted by the south pole of another magnet.The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other.

A compass is a magnet. It reacts like a magnet.
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.
When some pieces of plastics are brought near the magnet, they will get attracted.
One method is to use a magnet. If the metal is iron, the magnet will be attracted.
