There are two oppositely "charged" poles for both electric and magnetic. For magnetism we call the poles North and South, while for static electricity we call the poles positive and negative. Of course, you can walk away with the electrically charged positive pole, while you can't walk away with the North "charged" pole. There are differences. There is (apparently) no magnetic monopole.

How the behavior of electric charges similar to that of magnetic poles?

Like poles repel; opposite poles attract. They are similar to electric charges, for they can both attract and repel without touching. ... Electric charges produce electrical forces and regions called magnetic poles produce magnetic forces.


What repels that are alike?

Like electrical charges repel each other, as do like magnetic poles.


What are the similarities of magnetic poles and electric charge?

Magnetic poles and electric charges both act the same as in:"opposites attract and same repel."Electric charge is the source of magnetic poles. The Magnetic pole is W=zq where z is the free space impedance 375 Ohms and q is the charge. W units is the Weber or volt-second.


Is the rule for the interaction between magnetic poles similar to the rule for the interaction between electricity charged particles?

Yes, the rule for the interaction between magnetic poles is similar to the rule for the interaction between charged particles. Opposite magnetic poles attract each other, while like magnetic poles repel each other, similar to the way opposite charges attract and like charges repel in electricity.


Magnetic poles are similar to electric charges in that they both can repel and attarct one another?

Yes, magnetic poles, like electric charges, can attract or repel each other based on their orientation. Similar poles repel each other, while opposite poles attract. This behavior is a common characteristic of both magnetic and electric fields.


How are magnetic poles and electric charges similar?

Main similarity: Like charges repel each other, different charges attract each other.Main difference: Magnetic "charges" can't be separated. At least, so far it has not been achieved.


Do north pole and north pole repel each other?

Yes, in physics, like magnetic poles repel each other. This is known as the Law of Magnetic Poles. The same poles, such as two north poles, will repel each other because they have similar magnetic fields.


How is electricity like magnetic attraction?

Electricity is like magnetic attraction because like charges in electricity repel similar to the way like magnetic poles repel.


How is the strength of two magnetic poles related to the force between them?

The rule for the interaction between the magnetic poles is similar to the interaction between the electrical charges in terms of the attraction and repulsion. In both cases the unlike poles attract while the like poles repel.


In what way are magnetic poles very different from electric charges?

Magnetic poles are always found in pairs (North and South), unlike electric charges which can exist independently. Magnetic poles also do not exist as isolated charges, while electric charges can be found separately. Additionally, magnetic charges do not exist as distinct entities like electric charges.


How are the forces between charges similar to to the forces between magnetic poles?

The forces between charges and magnetic poles both follow an inverse square law, meaning they decrease with distance squared. Additionally, both forces can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the relative orientations of the charges or poles. Finally, both types of forces are mediated by fields (electric or magnetic fields) that extend through space.


How are Electric charge similar to magnetic poles how are they different?

Main similarity: Like charges repel each other, different charges attract each other.Main difference: Magnetic "charges" can't be separated. At least, so far it has not been achieved.
