What is the name of the force that joins the North Pole and South Pole?

You might think of better or clearer ways to phrase the question. It sounds as if you are hinting at the earth's magnetic field, but the magnetic poles are not directly at the geographic poles. The magnetic poles move around quite a bit. You could say that gravity joins the north and south poles, but that is not quite it either. The "North Pole and South Pole" are really different views of one single thing. The earth's axis is a theoretical line which extends indefinitely northward into space and indefinitely southward into space from earth. We call the part of this line projecting out from earth to the north the north pole. Ditto south. Some people argue that you can go north (or south) only so far, and then your only option is to start going in the opposite direction. In fact, north keeps going and going, if you view things from a position that is not earth-bound.

In what direction do lines of longitude run?
Every meridian of constant longitude joins the north pole to the south pole.
Is the Arctic Circle north or south of the Prime meridian?
The Prime Meridian is a line that joins the north pole and south pole. There is a point on it at every possible latitude. So it's not possible to be either north or south of the Prime Meridian.

Where is the force of a magnet the strongest?
It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole.
Where is the strongest part of a magnetic force?
It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole.
Where is the magnetic force of the magnetic strongest?
It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole.
Where on earth is the sun's rays spread out thinly all the time?

The most likely places you would find magnetic force on the earth are?
the north pole and south pole
The lines of magnetic force generated by the fluid motions of the earth's core result in the formation of what?
A.) magnetic north and south poles B.) north magnetic pole C.) north pole D.) north and south poles E.) south magnetic pole these are the options ^^
How many miles is it from the south pole to the north pole?
It takes about 12,450.5 miles from the north pole to the south pole or south pole to north pole.
What Location is at 90 Latitude?
The North Pole is at 90 North & the South Pole is at 90 South.
What is the composition of a magnet?
Modern magnets are made from alloys of Al, Ni, Fe, and Co. Magnets have a north pole and a south pole. The magnetic lines of force on a magnet originate at the north pole and end at the south pole.
