If two magnets attract each other their poles are?
If two magnets attract each other, their poles are opposite. This means that the North pole of one magnet is attracted to the South pole of the other magnet.
Does every magnet necessarily have a north and a south pole?
Yes,every magnet has a north pole and a south pole.IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE SOUTH AND THE NORTH POLES :If you have a magnet and you make a line exactly in the middle you will see that one side is the north pole and the other one is a south pole . You can even experiment this : when you are done drawing a line cut your magnet by that line . Do you think that you will have two magnets and one of them is south pole and the other one is the north pole . Well no !!!!!! You will have two magnets but both of them have south and north poles.Now:Remember , you know this magnets attach to each other .But north pole and an other north pole will never attach to each other.And the same thing goes for the south poles. Two south poles will never atach.Only two different poles will attach to each other ( north and south will attach, and south and north will attach to each other as well).ALL magnets have one north pole and one south pole.
Is it possible to break a magnet into two pieces so one of the pieces has just one pole?
No, it is not possible to break a magnet into two pieces so that one piece has just one pole. Magnets always have two poles, one north and one south. Splitting a magnet would result in two separate magnets, each with its own north and south pole.
What do opposite poles of magnets do?
Opposite poles of magnets attract each other, meaning the north pole of one magnet will be attracted to the south pole of another magnet. This is due to the alignment of magnetic fields in opposite directions, creating a force of attraction between the poles.
What would happen if magnet faced same pole?
If one magnet's North Pole faced another magnet's North Pole, the magnets would repel eachother, meaning they would push away from eachother. If you put a North and a South pole together, however, they would attract, or come together. N+N= Repel S+S= Repel N+S= Attract S+N= Attract Well. I guess opposites really DO attract...
Which side of magnets are attracted to one another?
north pole to south pole
Can magnets have only a North Pole?
Some scientists assume they exist, but one has never been found. You can read the wikipedia article for some interesting (albeit complex) information on the subject.
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.
Do magnets attract all objects?
No. Magnets can pull other magnets towards them, or push them away from them. If a magnet's north pole points towards another magnets north pole (or a south pole towards a south pole), they will repel, instead of pulling them towards them. On the other hand, if a magnet is brought near a piece of iron that is not already magnetic, it will induce magnetism in the iron, in such a way that the two magnets will attract one another. Yet on the other hand, magnets have hardly any influence on most substances.
When would two horseshoe magnets attract each other?
Two horseshoe magnets will attract each other when the opposite poles are facing each other (north pole to south pole or vice versa). This attraction occurs because of the magnetic field lines which flow from one magnet's pole to the other's pole, creating a force that pulls the magnets together.
When two simple magnets are brought together the north pole of one will attract no part of the other?
south pole
Are magnets important to us?
Heck yes, with out magnets we would not have to North or South pole. If we did not have those the earth would have no magnetic pull to it. The north and South pole are like 2 giant magnets pulling all the little magnets one way so they stick on your fridge!
Do magnets have an east and west pole?
Of course not! A magnet's poles are named after the directions in which they face when suspended.
What do we call the ends of magnets?
Poles...one is north-seeking (north pole) and one is south-seeking (south pole).
What is a true statement about the magnetic field between two magnets?
The south pole of one magnet is attracted to the north pole of the other magnet.
Why don't magnets stick to opposite ends of other magnets?
Magnet does not stick to the opposite of the magnet because one side of the magnet is called south pole and another side is called north pole .And south pole is suppose to stick north to north and south to South
A magnet has both a positive side and a negative side. can you just have a magnet that is positive?
No, no matter what, magnets have poles. In other words, magnets will always have a positive and negative side. If you cut you magnet in half, those two new magnets will both have + and - sides. Do this infinity times until you have a magnet 1 atom thick. The atom will still have a positive and negative pole. Hope this helps.
