Magnetic forces and many poles

[mustafallica]

i had this idea of a magnet, if u bend the magnet, so that it has 2 edges on the north pole and 2 edges on the south pole, just like half a tunnel, i don't know the name of the shape, but suppose it has 2 edges on the north pole, won't the 2 edges repel each other because they are positive, what forces act against the repelsion force, can we use that force to do work or energy.
thanks

btw when i meant 2 edges its just like a U Magnet but in a shape of cylinder-half a tunnel-

No. It takes x amount of energy to push the magnets together and you get x when the fly apart. Actually, you get less than x because of friction. Sorry, conservation of energy.

i didnt quiet get you!m its just one magnet

I don't understand the shape you are describing, but in any case, you can't get more work out than the work you put into bend the magnet into that shape.

oh, yeh i think i get the idea, anyways i'll try to get the name of the shape or picture it for u, thanks anyways
