Why is it that the Earth's geographic north pole is actually a magnetic south pole?
The Earth's geographic north pole is actually a magnetic south pole because the Earth's magnetic field is generated by the movement of molten iron in its outer core. This movement creates a magnetic field that aligns with the geographic north pole, causing it to act as a magnetic south pole.
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.
Is the magnetic north pole located in the south?
No, the magnetic north pole is not located in the south. It is located in the Arctic region, near the geographic North Pole.
The ends of a magnet are called what?
a pole
In which direction do magnetic field lines point from the south pole to the north pole of a magnet?
Magnetic field lines point from the south pole to the north pole of a magnet.
Why is the South Pole a continent and the North Pole not?
The South Pole has land, the North Pole does not!(To be more specific and accurate, the South Pole is not actually a continent, but is situated on the continent of Antarctica.)For more information, see 'Related links' below.

The south pole a compass magnet points toward?
magnetic north north pole =magnetic south
Is the north pole a natural magnet?
Yes, if you use a compass you you will see it points towards the north pole. Although the north pole is called the North pole, scientifically it is actually the south pole. This is because the Earth\'s magnetic field makes a compass point to the scientific south pole, geographically known as the North Pole
When you freely suspend a magnet which pole rests in north direction and which in south?
When a magnet is freely suspended, its north pole will align itself with the Earth's magnetic north, which is actually a magnetic south pole. Therefore, the north pole of the magnet will point toward the geographic North Pole, while the south pole of the magnet will point toward the geographic South Pole. This alignment occurs due to the magnetic field of the Earth.
What Location is at 90 Latitude?
The North Pole is at 90 North & the South Pole is at 90 South.
How many miles is it from the south pole to the north pole?
It takes about 12,450.5 miles from the north pole to the south pole or south pole to north pole.
What point on earth is the only place from which all directions face south?
The North Pole - because whatever direction you walk in away from it you will always be heading south. The North Magnetic Pole that is. Geographic North Pole is the correct answer. The magnetic pole is actually not in alignment with the geographic one.
Is the North Pole of a magnet plus or?
The North Pole of a magnet is traditionally considered the "north" end because it is attracted to the Earth's geographic North Pole, which is actually a magnetic south pole. In magnetism, opposite poles attract, so the North Pole of a magnet is a magnetic north pole, while the Earth's North Pole behaves like a magnetic south pole. Therefore, the North Pole of a magnet is not "plus" but is simply referred to as the North Pole.
What is polarity of a magnet?
The polarity of a magnet refers to its orientation with respect to the Earth's magnetic field. A magnet has two poles, a north-seeking pole and a south-seeking pole. The north pole of a magnet is attracted to the Earth's geographic North Pole, which is actually a magnetic south pole.
What you the latitude of the North pole and south pole?
The latitude at the north pole is 90° North. Thg elatitude at the south pole is 90° South.
Where is Arctic North pole or South pole?
the arctic is the north pole antarctica is the south pole :)
