B How is the magnet being affected in this diamagnetic application?

AI Thread Summary
In the discussion about the interaction between a strong magnet and a diamagnetic substance like water, it is clarified that both the magnet and the diamagnetic material experience mutual deflection. This phenomenon aligns with Newton's third law, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Participants emphasize the importance of recognizing this principle in understanding the behavior of magnets and diamagnetic substances. The conversation highlights the complexity of these interactions, suggesting that both entities influence each other. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for applications involving strong magnets and diamagnetic materials.

I am using an exremely stong magnet to deflect a diamagnetic substance( in this case water) Is the magnet being deflected against the dianagnetic
Or is the defection only present in the diamagnetic substance?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Both are deflected by each other. Newton's third law. :wink:
 
Yes I have heard that there are only 2 types of people in the world, those who realize the validity of Newtons third law and those who don't.
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...

Thread 'Why is the 3 body problem unsolvable? And what will happen if someone solves it?'

I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...

Thread 'Time of flight measurement uncertainty'

Hello! I am generating electrons from a 3D gaussian source. The electrons all have the same energy, but the direction is isotropic. The electron source is in between 2 plates that act as a capacitor, and one of them acts as a time of flight (tof) detector. I know the voltage on the plates very well, and I want to extract the center of the gaussian distribution (in one direction only), by measuring the tof of many electrons. So the uncertainty on the position is given by the tof uncertainty...
