When does the north pole become the south pole and the south pole become the north pole?
Answer The answer is no, of course not! It is the magnetic polarity of the earth that is being flipped, not the locations of Magnetic North and Magnetic South. Remember, 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are locations, not magnetic poles. So even if their magnetic polarities flip, the names of the locations won't ever change! All that would happen is that the magnetic field would reverse, and your compass would point to Magnetic South instead of Magnetic North.
Think of it this way, if the magnetic polarity of the earth flips, you wouldn't swap the names 'Arctic' and 'Antarctic'! So, why would you swap the names 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South'!!!!!

What are the polarity of earth's north and south poles?

5. In what direction is the equator from the South Pole?
The equator is North, as is everything else on earth when you are at the South Pole. From the south Pole, every direction is north.The North pole is the northernmost point on Earth. The South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth. The Equator is a line running circumferentially around the Earth and is midway between the poles. The Equator is south of the North Pole and north of the South Pole.All lines of latitude -- including the Equator -- are north of the South Pole.

What happens if a bar magnet is suspended vertically?
If a bar magnet is suspended vertically, it 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 and the south pole towards the geographic south.
