Repulsion / attraction force between magnets

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the repulsion and attraction forces between magnets and coils, specifically addressing methods to derive these forces in kilograms. Key suggestions include utilizing two solenoids with a defined current (I) and applying Ampere's Law to determine the magnetic field (B). Additionally, experimental approaches are proposed as viable alternatives for obtaining accurate measurements. The conversation highlights the complexity of the calculations involved and the need for practical experimentation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Ampere's Law
  • Basic principles of electromagnetism
  • Knowledge of solenoid operation
  • Familiarity with force measurement in kilograms
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the application of Ampere's Law in calculating magnetic fields
  • Explore experimental methods for measuring magnetic forces
  • Learn about solenoid design and its impact on magnetic field strength
  • Investigate the relationship between current (I) and magnetic force in solenoids
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, physicists, and hobbyists interested in magnetism, electromagnetism, and experimental physics will benefit from this discussion.

Hi, I am needing some guidance to find a way to calculate the repulsion or attraction force between (magnet/magnet) or (magnet/coil) in kg force.

I know there is not a fast or easy answer to this but you will help me a lot if you can help me finding the way to calculate it.

thanks for your help in advance

regards
sebastian

What about using 2 solenoids with current I , and using amperes law to find the B field.
Or what about doing it experimentally.
