Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

A magnet is an object that produces its own magnetic field and it also interacts with external magnetic fields. A magnet has two poles- North and South pole.

A rule for magnetism is that identical poles repel each other and different poles attract each other. So, for two magnets, if their north poles or else south poles face each other, they will repel each other. If the north pole is towards the south pole of another, they will attract.

Conclusion:

A rule for magnetism is that identical poles repel each other and different poles attract each other.
