The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Magnetic Poles**: Magnets have two poles: a north pole and a south pole. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet, while like poles (north-north or south-south) behave differently. 2. **Identifying Like Poles**: In the question, we are dealing with like poles, which means we are considering either two north poles or two south poles. 3. **Behavior of Like Poles**: When two like poles are brought close to each other, they do not attract; instead, they repel each other. This is a fundamental property of magnets. 4. **Conclusion**: Since like poles repel each other, the correct answer to the question is that like poles repel each other. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the answer is option 1: Like poles repel each other. ---
