We do not really know that it is impossible to have isolated north or south magnetic poles on their own, rather than coming in north-south combinations as we usually find them. Physicists believe that there may exist sub-atomic particles called monopoles which have only one pole, north or south, per particle. These have so far never been found, however.

State the rule that describes the behavior of magnetic poles?

Same poles attract where as opposite poles repel. N-N= repel N-S=attract S-N=attract S-S=repel


What happen when like poles n and n or s and s are place together?

When like poles (N-N or S-S) are placed together, they repel each other due to the magnetic forces between them. This is based on the principle that like poles repel each other and opposite poles attract each other in magnets.


Are north poles and south poles antipodal to each other?

Not necessarily - consider a horseshoe magnet for example, both N and S poles are close to each other. The N and S poles on the Earth are roughly opposite each other. Both poles wander somewhat, and the S pole is travelling NNE steadily at the moment.


What are the latitude of the equator and the poles?

equator latitude:0 n pole:90 n s pole:90 s


Which latitudes correspond to the North and South poles?

You can find both poles at 90 degrees, N and S, respectively.


Magnetic poles that are alike?

When two magnetic poles that are alike (North-North or South-South) are brought close together, they will repel each other. This is because like magnetic poles create a force that pushes them away from each other due to their similar magnetic orientation.


Why the poles are slightly inward from the ends?

The poles are slightly inward from the ends to ensure stability and prevent the tent from collapsing outward under tension. This design helps distribute the load evenly and provides structural integrity to the tent, making it more resistant to wind and other external forces.


What degrees do the N and S poles display?

The North Pole is 90 degrees north. The South Pole is 90 degrees south. (Note that this refers to the geographic poles, not the magnetic poles.)


Why do opposites attraced on a magnet?

A magnet has two poles, called North and South. Take two magnets and stick the ends together. You'll find N-S and S-N stick together (attract). N-N and S-S push apart (repel).


What are the poles on a magnet?

One pole in a magnet which is n stands for north , and the other pole on a magnet which is s , stands for south. Those are the two poles on a magnet.


How old s this shotgungunmarkings are j n 332?

Impossible to answer- not enough information.


Which poles on a magnet will repel?

Like poles repel, opposites attract. So a N pole of one bar magnet will repel the N pole of another bar magnet. And the same applies to two S poles.
