Hello,
I am trying to calculate the magnitude of the attractive force between a cylindrical magnet and a sheet of iron. A bit of searching found some equations that can be used to calculate the force between two magnets but I could not find anything related to magnetic force on non magnetized materials. I can't link them as this is my first post but searching wikipedia for "force between two magnets" will yield them.
Can you use a similar equation to find the force between a magnet and a metal?
