Why does the needle of a compass point south when it's put on a bar magnet?
When a compass needle is placed near a bar magnet, it aligns itself with the magnetic field created by the magnet. The compass needle is a small magnet itself, with its north pole attracted to the south pole of the bar magnet and repelled by its north pole. If the compass needle points south, it indicates that the bar magnet's south pole is near the compass's north pole, demonstrating the fundamental property of magnetic attraction and repulsion. Thus, the orientation of the compass needle reflects the magnetic field direction of the bar magnet.
Is north pole larger then south pole?
no
Why is the earth called a big magnet?
I would hesitate to hang the label "true" on that statement, but it isn't completely false either. The Earth does have a magnetic field.
How do you head south from the north pole on a given longitude?
north pole , ( the last person answer this , " yes or no " question is wrong.) it is north pole
What are the Geographical poles on the earth?
The geographical poles are the North and South Poles. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles.
How do we know its the south pole of the magnet?
The south pole of a magnet is typically determined by observing its attraction or repulsion to the north pole of another magnet. The Earth's magnetic field can also help identify the south pole of a magnet, as the north-seeking pole of a compass needle will point towards the Earth's magnetic south pole.
How can you tell which is the North Pole on a magnet if it is not marked?
A magnet's north pole will attract the south pole of a compass needle (i.e. the end of the needle that points to Magnetic South).
How do you identify the polarities in round magnet?
You can identify the polarities of a round magnet using a compass. The end of the magnet that points north on the compass is the north pole of the magnet, while the end that points south on the compass is the south pole of the magnet.
How do you find the north and south pole of a magnet?
The north pole of a magnet is attracted to the Earth's geographical North Pole, and the south pole is attracted to the Earth's geographical South Pole. You can also use a compass to find the north and south poles of a magnet - the needle will align with the north pole of the magnet.
How do you identify north and south pole of a magnet without using a compass?
guess an check.
What is the north pole of the magnet?
The pole attracted to the Earth's north pole, or another magnet's south pole.
What are north and south ends of a magnet called?
The north and south ends of a magnet are called magnetic north pole and south pole. The ends are named such because of the Earth's North Pole and South Pole.
What would a freely suspended magnet do?
A freely suspended magnet will align itself in the north-south direction due to Earth's magnetic field. The north pole of the magnet will point towards the geographic north pole, and the south pole will point towards the geographic south pole.
The ends of a magnet are called what?
a pole
Does a compass only have a north pole?
No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet. If you cut the magnet in half, each half will still have a north pole and a half pole.No, being a magnet, it has a north pole and a south pole. The two can't be separated in a magnet.

The end of a bar magnet which points to the south magnetic pole is the?
If, by 'south magnetic pole', you means 'Magnetic South', then the answer is the magnet's south pole. On the other hand, if you are referring to a south magnetic polairty, then the answer is the magnet's north pole.
What is the name of the two far end poles of magnet?
North pole, and south pole.North pole, and south pole.North pole, and south pole.North pole, and south pole.
