Magnetic Acceleration: Calculate Force & Distance

[moni94]

Hi. If I have a metal object such as a metal marble and I know its weight and distance from a certain magnet, which I know the magnetic force of, can I find the acceleration of the object's attraction towards the magnet?

Yes, you can calculate the acceleration of the object due to magnetic force(a=f/m). The magnetic force increase as the object moves closer to the magnet which means the magnetic force is the property of space provided by the magnet and is different at different point in space and in turn the acceleration of the object is different in different points in space The acceleration increase as the object approaches the magnet.

Yes, but how do I calculate the magnetic force from a particular distance?

Anyone? How do I calculate magnetic force vs distance?

Yes, you can calculate the acceleration of the metal object towards the magnet using the formula F=ma, where F is the force of attraction between the magnet and the object, m is the mass of the object, and a is the acceleration. To find the force of attraction, you can use the formula F=(μ0 * m1 * m2)/d^2, where μ0 is the permeability of free space, m1 and m2 are the magnetic moments of the magnet and object respectively, and d is the distance between them. Once you have calculated the force, you can then use it in the first formula to find the acceleration. It is important to note that this calculation assumes that the object is only being affected by the magnetic force and not any other external forces.
