Hello;
What happens if you took a compass and surrounded it completely with north poles (and no south poles)? Would the compass just spin repeatedly because it doesn't know what to point to?
Also, the compass can't spin forever; so I'm guessing it will stop because the magnets can't last forever. Why can't they last forever? Is it because the electrons lose energy?
Thanks.
