It is when you have the pole north facing up and the pole south facing down they repel. When the pole north and south are facing up or down they attract.

What are the rules that tell whether two magnets will attract and repel?

The opposite poles attract and similar poles repel.


Why do some electromagnets repel rather than attract?

SOME Electromagnet like permanent magnets have two poles(north/south). Likewise the rules for SOME Electromagnets are the same as those of a permanent magnet(same poles repel, different poles attract).


Magnetic poles are similar to electric charges in that they both can repel and attarct one another?

Yes, magnetic poles, like electric charges, can attract or repel each other based on their orientation. Similar poles repel each other, while opposite poles attract. This behavior is a common characteristic of both magnetic and electric fields.


What are the 2 general rules that apply to magnets?

Like poles repel each other and opposite poles attract each other. The magnetic field lines always form closed loops, flowing from the north pole to the south pole outside the magnet and from the south pole to the north pole inside the magnet.


The rules of electricity state that?

unlike charges attract each other and like charges repel each other. :)


What are the 2 rules of electrically charged objects?

1) Opposites like a Posative and negative attract. +- 2) Same charges means they repel. - <-------> - :)


What is the golden rule of electrostatics?

The golden rule of electrostatics is simple: opposites attract and likes repel. So, if you've got positive and negative charges hanging out, they'll be all over each other like magnets. But if you've got a bunch of positive charges or negative charges trying to get cozy, they'll be pushing each other away faster than you can say "static electricity."


What are two rules for charged objects?

Like charges repel each other, and unlike charges attract each other. Charges redistribute themselves on conductive materials to minimize repulsion or maximize attraction between them.


When do two objects attract?

Two magnets will attract each other when the opposite poles are facing each other. When the north faces the south, the magnets will pull closer, when they face the same way, they will try to move apart.


What are the 3 rules of static electricity?

Opposite charges attract while like charges repel. Electric charges are conserved; they cannot be created or destroyed. Charges can be transferred between objects through friction, conduction, or induction.


What are the electric charge rules?

Like charges repel each other, while opposite charges attract each other. Charge is conserved - total charge is constant in an isolated system. Charge is quantized - it comes in discrete units of the elementary charge (e).


What happens when two objects have positive charges?

Like charges repel, unlike charges attract, is what I learned at school. This is true for electric/magnetic charges. Within the atomic nucleus other forces take over, so two protons can live together.
