South pole of another magnet.
The north pole of the magnet is the one that points north. The Earth magentic pole that is near the north pole is traditionally called the "magnetic north pole", but if you consider Earth as a magnet, it is really the SOUTH pole, since the north pole of a magnet is attracted to it.
No, magnets have a north and south pole. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet, while like poles repel each other.
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.
Use a compass. The north (-seeking) pole of the compass will be attracted to the south pole of the magnet.
North does NOT repel south, etc.; rather, north ATTRACTS south, and north REPELS north.What happens here is as follows. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet. The north end of a compass is attracted by Earth's magnetic SOUTH pole; therefore, Earth's ACTUAL magnetic south pole is to the north. However, and confusingly, this has traditionally often been called Earth's magnetic north pole.

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.

The south pole of one magnet is attracted to the north pole of the other magnet.
True
repel
magnet has two poles..one is north pole n the other is south pole. the earth also has a magnet within it which has a dierction opposite to the direction of the geographical poles.i.e. the geographical north of earth is its magnetic south and vice versa. If a bar magnet is suspended freely , its one end is attracted to the magnetic north which is geographical south of earth n therefore that end of the magnet is called south pole.and the other end is called north pole.
The two poles- the north and the north- repel each other.
