Solution

  1. The areas of magnets that have magnetic strength are called “poles.”
  2. When we have more than one magnet, poles repel, pull, or attract each other.
  3. Opposite poles always attract each other while like poles repel each other.
  4. These acts of attraction and repulsion are known as magnetism.

Thus, the general law of attraction and repulsion between the magnetic poles is that the unlike poles always attract each other while like poles repel each other.
