Force of Repulsion Between Magnets in a Magnetic Field - Equation & Variables

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the force of repulsion between two magnets in a magnetic field, the equation varies based on their distance. When magnets are nearly touching, a simpler equation applies, while a more complex formula is needed for moderate distances, such as 2 cm apart. The magnetic field strength, measured in tesla, also influences the calculations. Key variables include the magnetic field strength, distance between the magnets, and their magnetic properties. Understanding these factors is essential for accurately determining the repulsive force.

How can i get the force of repulsion between 2 magnets? Which are located in a given location. and they have a determinated magnetic field in tesla. please give me the equation and the names of the variables. (and the name of the equation)
Thanks

The equation depends on the positon of the magnets.
There are different equations for when they are almost touching and when they are far apart. At moderate distances, it gets more complicated.
 
Yeah i know, they are supposed to be very close but there is not friction between them, like 2 cm of distance.

Thread 'Inducing EMF Through a Coil: Understanding Flux'

Thank you for reading my post. I can understand why a change in magnetic flux through a conducting surface would induce an emf, but how does this work when inducing an emf through a coil? How does the flux through the empty space between the wires have an effect on the electrons in the wire itself? In the image below is a coil with a magnetic field going through the space between the wires but not necessarily through the wires themselves. Thank you.

Thread 'Griffith, Electrodynamics, 4th Edition, Example 4.8. (Second part)'

I am reading the Griffith, Electrodynamics book, 4th edition, Example 4.8. I want to understand some issues more correctly. It's a little bit difficult to understand now. > Example 4.8. Suppose the entire region below the plane ##z=0## in Fig. 4.28 is filled with uniform linear dielectric material of susceptibility ##\chi_e##. Calculate the force on a point charge ##q## situated a distance ##d## above the origin. In the page 196, in the first paragraph, the author argues as follows ...
