Explanation:
Take a magnetic compass and place it close to but not touching your magnet. Watch carefully at where the compass needle points. The point that normally points to the north pole of Earth should point to one end of the magnet. That end is actually the South pole of the magnet.

Answer:
The earth can be pictured as a gigantic magnet, but the geographic North Pole actually is the South Pole of a neodymium magnet. For this reason, the North Pole of the magnet will point to the South Pole of the compass.
