Detailed explanation-1: -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. If you line the magnets up so that two of the same poles face each other, the magnets will push away.

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: -Attract means that the two opposite poles, the north and south poles on a magnet, pull together.

Detailed explanation-4: -Every magnet has both a north and a south pole. When you place the north pole of one magnet near the south pole of another magnet, they are attracted to one another. When you place like poles of two magnets near each other (north to north or south to south), they will repel each other.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
