Question

Where are poles of magnet located

Answer 1

the poles of magnet are located on the sides of a ring magnet. On the ends of a bar and horse shoe magnet.

Answer 2

Answer:

Poles are located at the ends of bar magnet just before the ends.

Explanation:

A rectangular shaped object which shows magnetic properties is a bar magnet. It is a permanent magnet which attracts metallic objects. When a bar magnet is allowed to stay free, one end of the magnet points towards the geometric north pole of the earth and the other end points the geometric south pole. The magnetic north pole of the earth is at its geometric south and the magnetic south pole of the earth is at its geometric north. According to magnetic properties, opposite poles of magnets attracts. Since one end of the magnet pointed towards the magnetic south pole of the earth, the north pole of the magnet is at that end. Similarly, the south pole of the magnet is at the opposite end. Hence, we can conclude that the poles of a bar magnet is located at its ends.
