Please explain how this image is possible? Discuss as a group and write your answer down.
These magnets are repelling because both of their north poles (or south poles) are close.

What is a touching force? How is it different from a non-touching force?
A touching force is a push or a pull when the objects touch. A non-touching force is a push or a pull that happens without the objects touching.
