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 are electrical charges similar to magnetic poles?

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 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.


Which is true for both magnets and charges?

Both magnets and charges produce a magnetic field that can exert forces on other magnets or charges, and they can either attract or repel each other based on their configuration (like poles attract, opposite poles repel). Additionally, they both follow the inverse square law, where the strength of the force decreases with the square of the distance between them.


What like magnet poles do?

Like magnetic poles (or like electric charges) push away from each other. The same also happens with like color charges of the quarks.

How opposite charges or magnetic poles respond?

Opposite charges attract each other, meaning they pull together. Similarly, opposite magnetic poles attract each other. This is because there is an attractive force between opposite charges or magnetic poles.


When opposite poles of two magnets brought together the poles?

When two magnets are brought together, the opposite poles will attract one another, but the like poles will repel one another. This is similar to electric charges. Like charges repel, and unlike charges attract.


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 is the behavior of electric charges is similar to that of magnet poles?

Like charges repel each other while opposite charges attract each other.


What is the nature of the force between electric charges and magnets, and is it attractive or repulsive?

The force between electric charges and magnets is known as electromagnetic force. It can be both attractive and repulsive, depending on the charges and poles involved. Opposite charges and poles attract each other, while like charges and poles repel each other.


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.


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.


What happens when opposite poles or charges are brought close together?

When opposite poles or charges are brought close together, they attract each other due to the electrostatic force of attraction between them. This force increases as the distance between the poles or charges decreases. If they are allowed to make contact or get close enough, they may neutralize each other or cancel out their charge.


How are magnets and statics electricity similar?

Both magnets and static electricity repel like charges and attract to opposite charges. Magnets repel the same poles and attract opposite poles. Static electricity repels like charges and attracts unlike charges.


How are electrical charges similar to magnetic poles?

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.


Do opposite poles attract on magnet?

Yes. The "north pole" of one magnet will attract the "south pole" of another. Opposite charges attract, likecharges repel.


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.
