| Poles of a Magnet |
|
| The magnetic force appears to be concentrated at or near the ends of the magnet. These areas are called the magnetic poles. |
| |
| The pole of a suspended magnet which points towards the north, is called the 'north seeking pole (north pole)', the other pole is called the 'south seeking pole (south pole)'. |
| |
| Magnetic poles always exist in pairs. It is not possible to produce just an isolated north pole or isolated south pole. If a bar magnet is broken into two, each piece will have a north and south pole. |
