AI Thread Summary
A hollow spherical magnet with inner n-poles and outer s-poles raises questions about magnetic field formation in its empty space. The absence of an s-pole for the n-pole's magnetic force lines challenges the notion of magnetic field creation within the sphere. It is suggested that as magnetic modules are assembled, existing field lines may pass between them, leading to a cancellation of the total magnetic field. This assembly process requires energy and can result in a net zero magnetic field, with only minor identifiable poles remaining. The discussion highlights the complexities of magnetic interactions in such configurations.

TL;DR Summary
How is a magnetic field formed in a space surrounded by one pole?
There is a magnet in the shape of a hollow sphere. And the inner surfaces are all n-poles, and the outer surfaces are all s-poles. At this time, how is the magnetic field formed in the empty space of the sphere? There is no s pole for the magnetic force lines from the n pole to enter, so can magnetic force lines be created? Also, if only magnetic force lines are generated from the s-pole to the n-pole inside the magnet, the number of magnetic force lines entering and exiting the magnet must be the same, so won't it interact with magnets outside the spherical magnet? These may not seem to make sense. What actually happens in these situations?

Thereis? Where is said magnet? One cannot build such an object.

One bar magnet is a dipole. Two bar magnets is a quadrupole. Four bar magnets is an octopole. Etc.

As you add more dipoles you get higher order multipoles. You do not get a monopole.

As the magnetic modules are assembled to form the shell, the existing magnetic field lines will pass between the modules. Energy will be required to assemble the modules, which will result in cancellation of the total magnetic field. Some magnets will be weaker than others, so the resulting field will be sum zero, with some minor N and S poles identifiable.

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
I don't need cloth simulation. I need to simulate clothing meshes. Made of triangles and I need an answer that someone with High School math can understand. I am actually using the time it takes for someone to answer to create a model with less geometry than the one I have been using. I want clothing that can be removed on a model that will be animated. I don't need stretching or wrinkles on my meshes, I just need gravity. I have an idea of how I could do it, but I don't know how to apply...
