SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the principles of electromagnetic repulsion between two coiled electromagnets aligned with the same direction of current. It is established that the magnetic force between two current-carrying wires is directly proportional to the product of their currents, denoted as i1 * i2. The geometry of the coils significantly influences the constant of proportionality, and engineering enhancements can further increase this force. The shape of the core, such as using a metric pentagon or octagon bar, can enhance structural rigidity and potentially increase the magnetic force.
