What are the polarity of earth's north and south poles?
The Earth's North Pole is a magnetic south pole and the South Pole is a magnetic north pole. This means that the North Pole of a compass needle points towards the Earth's magnetic South Pole, and vice versa.
If you put a North Pole magnet at The Magnetic North Pole will it levitate?
Yes, if you put a north pole magnet at The Magnetic North Pole it will levitate
Why is a North Pole of a compass attracted to the North Pole of the Earth?
The north pole of the earth is only the geographical north pole. The actual magnetic north pole of the Earth's magnetic field is situated near the south pole. Similarly, the south pole of the Earth's magnetic field is situated near the geographical north pole. So, when a magnet is freely suspended, the north pole of the magnet is attracted to the magnetic south pole of the Earth and thus, indirectly, points to the geographical north of the Earth.Alternative AnswerLet's sort out our terminology, here. "Magnetic North" is a location or more accurately, a direction, and the term is used to differentiate it from the earth's "True North". The term "Magnetic North" has nothing to do with its magnetic polarity, which is a south pole.
How can you show that the geographic north pole behaves as a magnetic south pole?
The geographic north pole behaves as a magnetic south pole because opposite magnetic poles attract each other. This means that the north-seeking pole of a compass needle (which is used to determine direction) points toward the magnetic north pole, which is near the geographic north pole. Thus, the geographic north pole is essentially a magnetic south pole in terms of magnetism.
Is the geographic North Pole is also called the magnetic North Pole?
no, the magnetic north pole is determined by the molten iron core, and changes.
The south pole a compass magnet points toward?
magnetic north north pole =magnetic south

Which magnetic pole is attracted to a south magnetic pole?
North.
What does magnets have?
They have a North Magnetic Pole and a South Magnetic Pole.
What is the difference between the magnetic north pole and the geographical north pole?
the magnetic north pole moves while the geographic north pole stays in the same place
What is the difference between the North Pole and the magnetic North Pole, and how do their respective locations impact navigation and compass use?
The North Pole is the geographic point at the top of the Earth, while the magnetic North Pole is where the Earth's magnetic field points vertically downwards. The magnetic North Pole is located slightly off from the geographic North Pole. This difference can affect navigation and compass use because compasses point towards the magnetic North Pole, not the geographic North Pole. This can lead to discrepancies in navigation, especially in areas close to the magnetic North Pole.

Are the North Pole and the geographic North Pole always the same distance apart?
No. The magnetic pole wanders quite a bit - even towards the south rotational pole at times.
Is the geographic North Pole is also called the magnetic North Pole?
no, the magnetic north pole is determined by the molten iron core, and changes.
Is the magnetic pole near north or south?
Both, there ia a North and South Magnetic pole.
