How Do Magnets Work

the north pole of the magnet points to the geomagnetic north pole (a south magnetic pole) located in Canada above the Arctic Circle. north poles repel north poles south poles repel south poles north poles attract south poles south poles attract north poles the force of attraction or repulsion varies inversely with the distance squared the strength of a magnet varies at different locations on the magnet magnets are strongest at their poles magnets strongly attract steel, iron, nickel, cobalt, gadolinium magnets slightly attract liquid oxygen and other materials magnets slightly repel water, carbon and boron
