Hi everyone. I was doing an experiment on the effects of varying the distance between the solenoid and magnet, the voltage across the solenoid, and temperature of the iron core inside the solenoid on the magnetic field produced and the magnetic repulsion between the solenoid and magnet...

Let's say I have a magnetic ball within a solenoid that has current passing through it. How would I calculate the magnetic force on the ball?

Can you explain me this: Ferromagnet has permanent magnetic force and can't lose it in the constant conditions, so if i put magnet and piece of the metal it will be pulled away from the magnet creating some kinetic energy. As energy can't be created, just transfered, so I don't understand who...

Our professor proposed a scenario during lecture that went like this, There is a wire of infinite length that has a current. At a short distance from the wire is a single charge which is stationary relative to the wire. What i don't understand is this, since the charge has a velocity relative...

Ok, so. The formula is F=qv x B, meaning that the force vector is an orthogonal vector equal to the cross product of vectors qv and B. There are, however, 2 orthogonal vectors, in each direction. The thing I am having trouble understanding is why is one direction chosen over the other. I...

Since the magnetic force between dipoles goes as 1/r^4 and the electrical force goes as 1/r^2 for charges, would electrons be able to theoretically get close enough for their magnetic attraction to be greater than their electrical repulsion? If so, what then?

Does anyone have a good theory for magnetic force? No need to talk about domain alignment or electron spin, (although if you have something deeper then just electron spin, id love to hear it)this much is known. I'm talking about the actual FORCE of magnetism. As in: If you are in a vacuum...
