Answer:

  • Earth's geographic north pole is actually a magnetic south pole.
  • The south poles of two bar magnets will repel each other.
  • The north pole of a bar magnet will attract the south pole of another bar magnet.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The earth's geographical north pole is also called as the north pole or the terrestrial geographical north pole and is defined as the point of the northern hemisphere and is the magnetic south pole of the earth. The earth magnetic poles have equal are properties and thus are close relation and opposite to each and every property.

Answer:

Options (3), (4) and (5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The geographic north and south poles refers to the two geographical location/points, where the earth's axis spins. And the magnetic north and south poles refers to the direction towards which a compass needle points.

The geographic north pole and the magnetic south pole of earth is the same, and two bar magnets where one having the north pole and the other having the south pole can attract each other. Similar poles of two bar magnets cannot attract one another, whereas they repel.

Thus, the correct answers are options (3), (4) and (5).
