How are magnets attracted to another?

Magnets have both a north pole and a south pole. One of the laws of magnets is "like forces repel, unlike forces attract." So, if you bring the north pole of one magnet towards the south pole of another, there will be a strong attractive force between them. With very strong magnets, you may not be able to force two north poles together - they will just slide away.


How can the behavior of the two magnets show the presence of a magnetic force?

If they pull towards, or away from, one another, it means there is a force.


How can magnets push?

Remember that push or pull is force. Magnetic can be a push or pull because magnets has a kind of attraction force that attracts objects to itself and can also repel objects from itself. If we take two magnets into action we can demonstrate bothphenomenons. Magnets have a north and south pole, if we make face a south and a north pole of the magnets they will eventually attract each other and will stick together and if we make face the north pole of one magnet to the other north pole of the magnet they repeal (push) each other apart. Remember that this phenomenons of magnetic attractions are not applied to every single thing but limited to its opponent or limited to the objects that it can apply the push or pull strategy.


What happen if you put two south pole magnets together?

If you put two south pole magnets together, they would repel each other (the force would push the two magnets away from each other). Only north pole and south pole attract each other. Short answer- you would have a hard time getting the two south poles to touch! Hope this helped! =D


Can a magnet move away from a magnet?

Magnets can have attractive force, if the opposite poles (North South) are oriented toward each other. They can also repel (force away from each other) if like poles (North North, or South South) are oriented toward each other.


What happens when like poles of two magnets are bought close?

If they come end-to-end, they will either attract or repel depending on the polarity.If you bring the sides together, they often will slide to bring their ends + & - ends together.


How do you get 2 strong magnets that are stuck together apart?

Where do magnets attract each other?

Magnets are works on the same principle as how charge particles acts. If two like particles comes together, they will apply repulsion force to get away from each other. Meanwhile if two particle with different charge come together comes together they will attract each other (lovers). The same way if we put two like poles of a magnetics together they will repel each other but like poles will attract each other.


If you put 2 magnets on a table one 9 inches away and another 12 inches and put 2 paper clips at the opposite end of the table how can they reach the magnets at the same time?

magnetic poles (force) will draw paper clips to magnets


What does repel mean in a magnet?

It means that when you put to magnets together they won't touch. They almost push away from each other. The opposite if when you put to magnets together and they stick to each other, this is called magnets being 'attracted to each other'.
