Mathematical Link between Kinetic Force & Electro-Magnet's charge.

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the mathematical relationship between the kinetic force applied to two electro-magnets with repelling charges and the potential effects on their magnetic fields. Participants explore concepts related to magnetic fields, electric charges, and the interactions between these forces.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks to understand how the kinetic force on two repelling electro-magnets affects their magnetic fields and whether this can be measured electrically.
  • Another participant questions the formulation of the original question and suggests that it may relate to the forces between point charges.
  • A different participant clarifies that there is no concept of magnetic charge and asks if the inquiry pertains to electric charges instead.
  • The original poster attempts to clarify their question by discussing the relationship between the current supplied to an electro-magnet and its magnetic field strength, as well as the effects of mechanical force on the magnetic fields.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no consensus on the original question's clarity or the concepts involved. Participants express differing views on the terminology and the underlying physics, indicating that multiple interpretations exist.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not reached a resolution regarding the definitions of magnetic charge versus electric charge, and the mathematical relationships remain unspecified. The discussion includes assumptions about the behavior of magnetic fields under mechanical force that have not been fully explored.

Greetings!
This is my first post and I am hopefully doing it in the right section of the site.

Onto the topic:
I am searching for the mathematical link between the kinetic force applied on two electro-magnets being forced against each other (assume repelling charges) and the effect that it would have on the magnet's charge.

Either I am the first one to search such information or my google-fu failed Me.

Thank You.

Is something wrong with the way I formulated the question or does no one have a clue ?

Welcome to the PF.

There is no such thing as magnetic charge. Were you asking about electric charges as psparky has posted about?
 
Ah. Must be a translation mistake from my part.
Let Me try to better illustrate:

When You have an electro-magnet the current (watts) You hook it up to will affect the power of the magnetic field.
Two magnetic field of same polarities will repel each other.
However if You mecanically force them too close to each other; will it affect the magnetic field(s) in a way that will be measured electrically ? (Affecting the Amp/Volts/etc)

And if that is true what is the link between the amount of force needed to push them against each other and the changes in the magnetic field ?
