The north and south pole are the earth's equivalent of a bar magnet, with a north and south pole. If you hold a bar magnet up, tied to a piece of string, the north pole of the bar magnet will face the earth's north pole. The earth has an inner magnet.
Since the directions, north and south, pre-date the use of a magnetic compass, the compass needle was labeled according to which direction it pointed. The magnetic pole in the north is, in reality, a south magnetic pole since the north pole of a magnet is attracted to it. Try not to let that keep you awake tonight.
They have to be called something and we call latitudes on one side of the equator "North" and on the other side "South" so where these latitude circles become infinitely small we call them the Poles.
They are the points where the Earth's axis of rotation intersects it's surface. They are directly opposite each other and should not be confused with the North and South Magnetic Poles.
North and South (Poles) :)
The North Pole is called the Artic and the South Pole is called Antarctica. There is a lot of tundra in this area which makes the environment essentially treeless.
North and south poles.
A magnet has a north and a south pole.
in north poles their are fishes in south pole their are penguins
North and South (Poles) :)
a pole
Magnets have two poles, these poles are called the North pole and the South pole. The North pole is the side of the magnet that points to the Earth's North pole when freely suspended.
yes, the north and south poles are geographical poles.
South Pole North Pole
No, no barber poles at either the north or south pole.
North pole and South pole. This can be easily identified using a compass. Be careful not to re-magnatize the compass.
North Pole is the Arctic.South Pole is the Antarctic.
North pole and South pole
The North Pole is called the Artic and the South Pole is called Antarctica. There is a lot of tundra in this area which makes the environment essentially treeless.
It has 2 Poles the North Pole and the South Pole . Extra Info . : Like Poles repel where as unlike Poles attract .
Every magnet has two poles, called the north and south poles. Magnetic field lines begin at the north pole, and end at the south pole.
