Question

if two magnets are placed on a table, which statement describes a situation with the most attraction between the two magnets

Answer 1

The north pole of one magnet is near the South pole of the other magnet.

The ends of a magnet are called its poles. One end is called the north pole, the other is called the south pole. If you line up two magnets so that the south pole of one faces the north pole of the other, the magnets will pull toward each other.
