The poles of a magnet are the ends of the core of the magnet, where the lines of force emerge. An experiment with iron filings shows the lines of force, by putting a sheet of paper over the magnet and sprinkling fine iron filings. This is an easy thing to do at home. For a bar magnet the poles will be at opposite ends. If you have two such magnets you can experiment and find that like poles repel, opposite poles attract.

What is the north pole of the magnet?
The pole attracted to the Earth's north pole, or another magnet's south pole.
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.
What is the middle of a magnet called?
pole. the middle part of a magnet is the pole. :)
Does a compass only have a north pole?
No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet. If you cut the magnet in half, each half will still have a north pole and a half pole.No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet.

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.
What would the North Pole of magnet be attracted to?
South Pole of another Magnet or towards the South Pole of the Earth
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.
What is the end of a magnet called?
A pole. They are called the north pole and south pole. The north pole of a magnet is defined as the pole that, when the magnet is freely suspended, points towards the Earth's North Magnetic Pole in the Arctic.
How can you determine the poles of an UN marked magnet?
To determine the poles of an unmarked magnet, you can use a known magnet or a compass. Bring the compass close to the magnet; the compass needle will point towards the magnet's south pole, as it is attracted to the north pole of the compass. Alternatively, you can use another magnet: the north pole of the second magnet will be attracted to the south pole of the unmarked magnet and repelled by its north pole. This interaction can help you identify the poles of the unmarked magnet.
Why don't magnets stick to magnets?
Magnet sticks to another magnet when north pole of the first magnet approaches the south pole of the second magnet.
In which part of the magnet are magnetic forces strongest?
The magnetic field of a bar magnet is strongest at either pole of the magnet. It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole. The force is weaker in the middle of the magnet and halfway between the pole and the center
Why does a broken magnet remain a magnet?
It is so far experimentally impossible to separate the North Pole from the South Pole. Even if you cut the magnet into little pieces, it'll still remain a magnet because there will still be a North pole and a South Pole
