Magnetic force on ferromagnetic body

AI Thread Summary
The discussion addresses the magnetic force exerted on ferromagnetic materials, specifically a cube of soft iron, in a magnetic field. It highlights that the force is influenced by the material's magnetic properties, dimensions, orientation, and the spatial characteristics of the magnetic field. A uniform magnetic field typically results in no net force acting on the object. Calculating the force on a cube shape is particularly complex due to these variables. Overall, the interaction between ferromagnetic materials and magnetic fields is nuanced and lacks a straightforward formula.

Hello
when we study electromagnetic ,it is easy to find force of a magnetic field on particle witch has electric charge (for example electron and ...) but what is force of magnetic field on ferromagnetic materials? for example if we put a cube of soft iron with a*a*a dimentions near a magnetic field B or H what is the force witch attract it?

The force depends on many things, so there is no simple formula.
The force depends on the magnetic properties of the object, its dimensions and orientation, and the spatial dependence of the B field.
There will generally be no force for a uniform B field.
A cube is a difficult shape calculate the force on.
 
Thank you dear Meir Achuz
material is magnetostrictive and objected to a uniform (respect to x direction) magnetic field.
 
I don't think there will be any net force in a uniform magnetic field.
 
Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'
So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
