What is a wollyfloggle?
A wollyfloggle is a word that, when reversed, forms a new word. Examples would be "evil" reversed to "live" or "pal" reversed to give "lap".
How do you use the word polarity in a sentence?
The polarity of both ends of a magnet is different. The positive and negative polarity exist for a magnet.
Where is the south magnetic pole of the Earth?
Let's start by sorting out the terminology. 'Magnetic North' is a location, so-called, to distinguish it from 'True North'. It is not the magnetic polarity of that location. Magnetic North is not a fixed location, but is always moving relative to Magnetic North which is located at the earth's axis.A freely-suspended magnet, when it comes to rest, essentially points towards Magnetic North (it actually lies along the lines of magnetic flux that join Magnetic North and Magnetic South). For this reason, that end of a magnet (and that of a compass needle) was originally called its 'North-seeking' pole. Over time, we have dropped the word, 'seeking', and it's now simply called its 'north pole' and, by common agreement, this is also considered to be its magnetic polarity.So, if the 'north' pole of a magnet points towards the location we call 'Magnetic North', then the magnetic polarity of that location is a south pole. This is because unlike poles attract.So, to answer the question, the south magnetic pole of the earth is located (deep within the earth) below the location we call 'Magnetic North' in Canada.Why people find this so confusing can only be put down to poor teaching! It is perfectly logical; there has not been any mistake in naming the poles; it's not because the polarity of compass needles have been misnamed!!! It's because people don't seem to realise that Magnetic North is a LOCATION, not a polarity!
What best describes earths north magnet?
Our planet behaves as though a giant bar magnet is buried deep within the earth, and lying slightly out of alignment with the earth's axis of rotation. The points where this imaginary bar magnet's magnetic field lies perpendicular to the earth are named Magnetic North and Magnetic South respectively. These points do not coincide with the earth's geographic poles, which are called True North and True South respectively. It's very important to understand that 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' describe locations, and have nothing whatsoever to do with their magnetic polarities. In fact, these locations are not fixed, but constantly move relative to True North and True South, and the locations must be taken into consideration for the purpose of navigation.A freely-suspended magnet (or a compass needle) will align itself with the earth's magnetic field and will always come to rest pointing in a Magnetic North - Magnetic South direction. Because of this, one end of the magnet was originally named its 'North-Seeking Pole', while the other end was named its 'South-Seeking Pole'. Over time, we have dropped the word 'seeking' from these expressions, and now call the ends of a magnet (or compass needle) its 'north pole' and its 'south pole' which, by common consent, are used to identify the magnetic polarities of a magnet. Because 'unlike poles attract', this means that the magnetic polarity of Magnetic North (i.e. the location) must be a south pole, and the magnetic polarity of Magnetic South must be a north pole.To summarise, the terms 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are locations so-named to differentiate them from 'True North' and 'True South' for the purpose of navigation. Because the north pole of a magnet or compass needle is attracted towards Magnetic North, that location's magnetic polarity is south. And, of course, the magnetic polarity of Magnetic South location is north.From geological records obtained from magnetized rock strata and other natural materials, it is well-known that the magnetic poles have actually "flipped over" several times during the many aeons of the earth's long history (although not during man's existence). Should this do so again in the future, it will have no affect whatsoever on the locations or on naming of 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South', although their magnetic polarities will, of course, reverse!For more information see the Related links shown below.

Which pole of compass needle points to a south pole of a magnet is south pole or north pole?
First of all, it's important to understand that the term, 'magnetic north', is a location and has nothing to do with its magnetic polarity. It is called 'magnetic north' to differentiate it from 'true north', because that is where a compass needle points.Originally, the 'north pole' of a magnet (and of a compass needle) was called its 'north-seeking pole' but, over time, the word 'seeking' has been dropped, and we now call it, simply, the 'north pole' -which, by general agreement, is also its magnetic polarity.Since 'unlike poles attract', this means that the magnetic polarity of the location called 'magnetic north' is actually south. Or, to be more accurate, the region deep within the earth below 'magnetic north' is of south magnetic polarity.
