Question

the two magnets shown below attract each other. only one magnetic pole is labeled. fill in all of the unlabeled poles.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall magnetic - pole rule

Opposite poles attract. Given a north - labeled pole, the adjacent unlabeled pole must be south.

Step2: Determine other poles

Since a magnet has two poles (north and south), if one end is south, the other end is north.

Answer:

The pole adjacent to the labeled "N" pole is "S". The opposite end of the top magnet is "S", and for the bottom magnet, the end adjacent to the top - magnet's "S" is "N", and the opposite end of the bottom magnet is "S".
