{"product_id":"north-south-magnets","title":"North South Magnets","description":"Traditional magnet set teaches the functions of opposing forces. Contains two plastic encased magnets that measure 3\" in length. Although for many purposes it is convenient to think of a magnet as having distinct north and south magnetic poles, the concept of poles should not be taken literally: it is merely a way of referring to the two different ends of a magnet. Every magnet has two poles. This is where most of its magnetic strength is most powerful. These poles are called north and south or north-seeking and south seeking poles. The poles are called this as when a magnet is hung or suspended the magnet lines up in a north - south direction. When the north pole of one magnet is placed near the north pole of another magnet, the poles are repelled. When the south poles of two magnets are placed near one another, they also are repelled from one another. When the north and south poles of two magnets are placed near one another, they are attracted to one another. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eSee related categories of \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.trendtimes.com\/educational-toys.html\"\u003eeducational toys\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.trendtimes.com\/science-toys.html\"\u003escience toys\u003c\/a\u003e for children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trend Times Toys \u0026 Hobbies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43579597160505,"sku":"21-493","price":6.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0665\/3358\/9049\/files\/north-south-magnets-49.jpg?v=1720891936","url":"https:\/\/www.trendtimes.com\/products\/north-south-magnets","provider":"Trend Times Toy Stores","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
