[QUOTE="Vailanor, post: 6890352, member: 547663"] Magnets repel each other when both of them have the same poles facing each other (north to north or south to south). This is because the poles of the magnets have the same type of magnetic field, and the two fields interact with each other, creating a repulsive force. This is due to the fact that the electrons in each magnet's magnetic field are spinning in the same direction and the two fields oppose each other. [/QUOTE]
