  2. Force between magnets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_between_magnets

    The magnetic pole model assumes that the magnetic forces between magnets are due to magnetic charges near the poles. This model works even close to the magnet when the magnetic field becomes more complicated, and more dependent on the detailed shape and magnetization of the magnet than just the magnetic dipole contribution.

  3. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    Magnetism is the class of physical attributes that occur through a magnetic field, which allows objects to attract or repel each other.Because both electric currents and magnetic moments of elementary particles give rise to a magnetic field, magnetism is one of two aspects of electromagnetism.

  4. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    If, however, the magnetic field of the first magnet is nonuniform (such as the H near one of its poles), each pole of the second magnet sees a different field and is subject to a different force. This difference in the two forces moves the magnet in the direction of increasing magnetic field and may also cause a net torque.

  5. Magnetic moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_moment

    The magnetic force produced by a bar magnet, at a given point in space, therefore depends on two factors: the strength p of its poles (magnetic pole strength), and the vector separating them. The magnetic dipole moment m is related to the fictitious poles as [ 7 ] m = p ℓ . {\displaystyle \mathbf {m} =p\,\mathrm {\boldsymbol {\ell }} \,.}

  6. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, steel, nickel, cobalt, etc. and attracts or repels other magnets.

  7. Electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism

    Electromagnetic forces occur between any two charged particles. Electric forces cause an attraction between particles with opposite charges and repulsion between particles with the same charge, while magnetism is an interaction that occurs between charged particles in relative motion. These two forces are described in terms of electromagnetic ...

  8. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    Where is the elementary magnetic moment and is the volume element; in other words, the M-field is the distribution of magnetic moments in the region or manifold concerned. This is better illustrated through the following relation: m = ∭ M d V {\displaystyle \mathbf {m} =\iiint \mathbf {M} \,\mathrm {d} V} where m is an ordinary magnetic ...

  9. Electropermanent magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropermanent_magnet

    The original formula for force between two magnetized surfaces without fringing is well known, and presented below. In the formula the force is divided by 2. Since we are going to calculate the force for the two areas corresponding to the gaps then the equation to calculate the force as a function of the gap distance looks like:
