The north end of a freely suspended magnet always points to the Magnetic north pole.

Explanation

The behavior of magnets is a result of Earth's magnetic field. The Earth itself acts like a giant magnet with a magnetic north and south pole. When a magnet is freely suspended, like in a compass, it aligns itself with the Earth's magnetic field lines. The north pole of the magnet is attracted to the Earth's magnetic south pole, which is located near the geographic North Pole. Therefore, the north end of a suspended magnet will always point toward the Magnetic north pole, not to be confused with the geographic North Pole.
