Concept explainers
The south pole of the magnet.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
A magnet is a substance which attracts other magnetic materials. A magnet has two poles-North pole and south pole. The magnetic field strength is maximum near the poles and are represented by crowding of the field lines near the ends of a magnet.
The poles are always at the ends of a magnet. Magnetic field lines emerge from north pole and enter in south pole. The south pole of the magnet is denoted by ‘S’ in the diagram given below. The compass also points correctly.
