Compass: Magnetic north points to magnetic south. Magnetic south points to magnetic north.
If the magnetic north of a compass points to a magnetic south, why is it used to point to north pole? Since the magnetic north of a compass is attracted by the earth geographic north pole, this means that the earth geographic north is a magnetic south. Geographic north is magnetic south Geographic south is magnetic north
Simplified earth magnetic field
Behaviour of magnets: Attraction between north and south poles.
Repulsion between two north poles.
Repulsion between two south poles.
Let’s remember the golden rule: The field begins from North to south
What happens if two magnets approach? Attraction
