Because the magnetism runs from one end of the magnet to the other - across the whole magnet. You cannot have magnetism running in opposing directions in the SAME magnet.
No, the north side of a magnet only attracts to the south side of another magnet.
Opposite poles, also known as unlike poles, on a magnet attract each other because the excess number of electrons on the positive side will try to replace the ones missing on the negative side. This peculiar characteristic is what is known as magnetism.
both sides (poles) of a magnet have the same magnetic charge
The positive side of the magnet always points towards the north while the negative side will be in the opposite direction.
When two opposite sides of a magnet are in contact with each other, the magnetic fields align and attract each other, causing the magnet to stick together. This is due to the attraction between the opposite poles of the magnet.
If a circular object is magnetic, one side of it will be the north pole, the opposite side the south pole.
Yes, the North and South poles of a magnet attract each other. Furthermore, two North or two South poles will repel each other and no matter how many times you cut a magnet in half, it will always have a North and South pole.
In a round magnet, the poles are located at opposite ends of the magnet. One end will be the North pole and the other end will be the South pole. Magnetic field lines flow from the North pole to the South pole.
The two sides of a magnet are called the north and south poles. Typically, the magnet is stronger at its poles rather than its sides. The strength of a magnet is usually concentrated at the poles, where the magnetic field lines are closer together and more forceful.
It means they have same forces.Commonly referred to as there North (N) and South (S) poles each end of a magnet has a force associated with it. If two same forces ( N-N ) are brought near each other they will push away. If two different forces ( N-S ) are placed near each other they will pull together.This is the root of the phrase "opposites attract".It means they experience a force that tends to push them away from each other. "Repel" is the opposite of "attract".
The poles of a magnet are of equal strength but opposite polarity.
well when you have two magnets that are the same direction, for example, noth and north, they repel because they are both north but when you have north and south they attract because they are different sort of like man and woman
