Detailed explanation-1: -Unlike poles of magnet attract each other while like poles repel. So, the south and the north pole of two magnets will attract each other.

Detailed explanation-2: -A magnet has two ends called poles; one end is the north pole and the other is the south pole. A north pole will attract a south pole; the magnets pull on each other. But the two north poles will push each other away. We say the magnets repel each other.

Detailed explanation-3: -Outside the magnet, the lines travel from the north pole to the south pole. Hence, when a south pole is placed in close proximity to a north pole of another magnet, the magnetic field lines coming out of the north pole tend to go towards the south pole of the other magnet. This causes the two magnets to attract.

Detailed explanation-4: -The ends of a magnet are called its poles. One end is called the north pole, the other is called the south pole. If you line up two magnets so that the south pole of one faces the north pole of the other, the magnets will pull toward each other. This is called attraction.

Detailed explanation-5: -Therefore, the north pole of a magnet repels the north pole of another magnet.
