What is Uniform: Definition and 1000 Discussions

A uniform is a type of clothing worn by members of an organization while participating in that organization's activity. Modern uniforms are most often worn by armed forces and paramilitary organizations such as police, emergency services, security guards, in some workplaces and schools and by inmates in prisons. In some countries, some other officials also wear uniforms in their duties; such is the case of the Commissioned Corps of the United States Public Health Service or the French prefects. For some organizations, such as police, it may be illegal for non members to wear the uniform.

    Forces on magnets in a uniform magnetic field

    If you have uniform magnetic field, would something like a halbach array which has a non symmetrical magnetic field experience a net force? If not, is there any way to shield one side of a magnet so that it would experience a net force? On a similar note, if you wound a wire around a sphere in...
