Which pole (north or south) of a compass magnet is attracted to Earth's magnetic north pole?
spins
What pole of a compass is attracted to earth's magnetic north pole?
The south pole of a compass is attracted to Earth's magnetic north pole. This is because the magnetic north pole actually corresponds to a magnetic south pole, which attracts the compass's south-seeking end. As a result, when you hold a compass, the needle aligns itself with the Earth's magnetic field, pointing towards magnetic north.
The south pole of the compass needle will be attracted to earths?
North pole. The north pole of a compass needle has "S" on it, and the south pole of the needle has "N" on it. Opposites attract, similar poles repel.
Which pole north or south of a compass magnet is attracted to Earht's magnetic north pole?
The north pole of the magnet is the one that points north. The Earth magentic pole that is near the north pole is traditionally called the "magnetic north pole", but if you consider Earth as a magnet, it is really the SOUTH pole, since the north pole of a magnet is attracted to it.
Why do the ends of a compass needle point north and south?
they're magnetically charged and therefore attracted to the North Pole

Is the compass magnetic needle attracted to the south pole?
To the magnetic north pole
The south pole of the compass needle will be attracted to earths?
North pole. The north pole of a compass needle has "S" on it, and the south pole of the needle has "N" on it. Opposites attract, similar poles repel.
How do you find the north and south pole of a magnet?
The north pole of a magnet is attracted to the Earth's geographical North Pole, and the south pole is attracted to the Earth's geographical South Pole. You can also use a compass to find the north and south poles of a magnet - the needle will align with the north pole of the magnet.
Which pole of a compass magnet is attracted to earth's magnetic north pole?
The pole of the compass that is attracted to the earth's magnetic north pole must be a south magnetic pole. But here's the thing. In the compass, the south magnetic pole of the needle is marked "N" because that end of the compass needle points to earth's magnetic north. The only way the needle can point to earth's magnetic north is if that end of the needle, the one marked with an "N" on it, is a magnetic south pole. It almost seems counter intuitive, but think it through and it will become clear.

Why does a compass needle point in the north and south direction?
A compass needle aligns with the Earth's magnetic field, which has a north and south pole. The north-seeking end of the magnet is attracted to the Earth's magnetic south pole, causing the needle to point north.

How can one determine the poles of the magnetised iron bar?
To determine the poles of a magnetized iron bar, you can use a compass. One end of the bar that attracts the north-seeking end of the compass needle is the north pole of the bar. The opposite end that attracts the south-seeking end of the compass needle is the south pole of the bar.
What makes the needle on the compass always pointy north?
We know that it is a natural property for a magnet to attract unlike poles Earth itself is a bar magnet..So there is a tiny magnet in the compass which makes it to get attracted to north pole (i.e-Magnetic south pole is Geographic North pole,Magnetic North pole is Geographic South pole)That is -when compass is pointing North pole(magnectically)It is pointing Geographic South pole... Thanks**** Hope it was helpful!!!!
Why does a compass needle spin toward the magnet when yu put it near a magnet?
The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other. More specifically, the north pole of one magnet is attracted by the south pole of another magnet.The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other.
