Is the attractive and repulsive force of a magnet equal?

The repulsive and attractive forces of a magnet are not actually identical. A magnet generates a magnetic field around itself that runs from north pole to south pole. According to the law of magnetic poles, different poles (north and south poles) attract each other, while the same poles (two north poles or two south poles) repel each other.

The attractive force between two magnets depends on several factors, including the strength of the magnets, the distance between them and the orientation of their poles. The closer the poles are and the stronger the magnets are, the greater the attractive force.

On the other hand, a magnet also generates a repulsive force between like poles. If two north poles or two south poles face each other, they repel each other because the magnetic field lines run in opposite directions and repel each other.

It is important to note that the strength of the repulsive and attractive forces is not always equal. In most cases, the attractive force between two magnets is stronger than the repulsive force, unless the magnets are very weak or the distance between them is large.
