Detailed explanation-1: -In magnets like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other. So when placing the north pole of two magnets close together they will repel.
Detailed explanation-2: -When like poles of two magnets are brought in contact, they repel each other.
Detailed explanation-3: -Where on a magnet is the magnetic pull the strongest? The magnetic field generated by any magnet is always strongest at either pole. The magnetic force is equally as strong at both the north and south pole.
Detailed explanation-4: -If you line the magnets up so that two of the same poles face each other, the magnets will push away. This is called repulsion. Opposite poles attract each other, but similar poles repel.
