Opposite charges attract, negative charges repel. Charges generate electric fields around themselves which influence other nearby charges; moving charges create magnetic fields which do the same. More than that - it gets really complicated.

A magnet is an object that has a magnetic field. It can be in the form of a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. Permanent magnets do not rely upon outside influences to generate their field. They occur naturally in some rocks, but can also be manufactured. Electromagnets rely upon electric current to generate a magnetic field - when the current increases, so does the field.
Properties of magnets
Magnets are attracted to, or repelled by, other materials. A material that is strongly attracted to a magnet is said to have a high permeability. Iron and steel are two examples of materials with very high permeability, and they are strongly attracted to magnets. Liquid oxygen is an example of something with a low permeability, and it is only weakly attracted to a magnetic field. Water has such a low permeability that it is actually slightly repelled by magnetic fields. Everything has a measurable permeability: people, gases, and even the vacuum of outer space.
The SI unit of magnetic field strength is the tesla, and the SI unit of total magnetic flux is the weber. 1 weber = 1 tesla flowing through 1 square meter, and is a very large amount of magnetic flux.

No,2 helpful rates of a magnet does not entice. the clarification is using earth's magnetic container which exchange into opposite.2 helpful or 2 unfavorable rates can't entice. Its the certainty that like rates repel one yet another and in contrast to rates entice one yet another.

All the magnetic fields we can create are the result of moving
charges. Electromagnets make fields through large currents
in wires we make. Permanent magnets produce fields through the
orientation of the electron orbits and spins of the atoms in
the magnet.
Good luck buddy. Hope this helps! :)

Magnets are lonely,and want oral gratification.
That's why the "north" end of a magnet seeks the "south" end of another!

if you turn them the opposite way they will push away instead.

They don't do they? I thought they repelled each other.
