Thanks sophie. I was trying to find a way to expand on the idea that current flowing through two wires creates a magnetic field which cause the wires to repel or attact to plates. I don't know if this is possible, theoretically or practically. I think what I will end up doing is wrapping the...

Thanks again. I did an analysis where I treated the two plates as two wires to get a rough estimate. I don't know how valid this is when compared to the two plates. I also did the approach you recommended where I treat the plate as a series of parallel currents. This website describes the...

Thanks for the help. This seems like a very good idea. How would I quantify the value of the of the surface current?

Thanks for the reply. Here is the problem. I have two parallel plates which a current is being ran through. This will create two magnetic fields around the plates. I run the current in opposite directions so the plates will repel each other. I want to find an expression to determine the...

I have two plates and I want to charge them so they repel each other. To do this I ran opposing currents through the plates and to create magnetic fields which will cause the plates to repel. Now, I need to find the force exerted on each plate. I am having a little trouble with this...
