Relationship between the pulling force and the magnetic field of a magnet

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between the pulling force of a magnet and its magnetic field strength. A specific magnet with a pulling force of 24 pounds was mentioned, indicating that stronger magnetic fields correlate with greater pulling forces. The conversation references a Wikipedia article that provides foundational knowledge on the forces between magnets, confirming the existence of this relationship.

So I recently bought a couple of magnets for an experiment and the website lists the pulling force of the magnet as 24 pounds. I am pretty sure there is a relationship between the pull force and the magnetic field. Can someone please help?
Thank you!
