Question 1
Both magnetic and electrical forces are non - contact forces (act at a distance) and have attractive and repulsive interactions (magnetic between poles, electrical between charges).
Magnetic force (between masses? No, gravitational is between masses) and gravitational force are both non - contact forces (act over a distance) and are field - based (gravitational field, magnetic field) and depend on properties of the objects (mass for gravity, magnetic properties for magnetism).
When a magnet is broken in half, each piece becomes a new magnet with its own north (N) and south (S) pole. So next to the original magnet (with N at the bottom), after breaking, each half will have a N and S pole. For example, if we break the vertical magnet (with N at bottom) into two horizontal or vertical pieces, each piece will have a N and S. If broken vertically (assuming original is vertical with N at bottom), the top piece will have S at the bottom (where it was broken) and N at the top, and the bottom piece will have S at the top (where it was broken) and N at the bottom.

A similarity is that both magnetic force and electrical force are non - contact forces (they can act on objects without direct physical contact) and exhibit both attractive and repulsive behavior (magnetic force between opposite/like poles, electrical force between opposite/like charges).
