its for this project I am doing. convert gauss units into Newtons per metre
 
Physics news on Phys.org
A Tesla is also a Newton per meter per ampere: N/m/A. Is that what you're going for?
Also 1 Gauss is 10-4 T.
 
I'm trying to calculate how the magnetic attraction or repulsion changes between two magnets while they are "orbiting" a pivot. But this will require a standard equation for converting units like gauss into units such as Newtons per meter.
