I am computing force between two magnetic poles each of one unit pole (in emu) and situated one centimeter apart.
In electromagnetic units:
##F_{dyne}=\dfrac{p^2}{r_{cm}^2}=\dfrac{1^2}{1^2}=1 dyne##
where ##p## is pole strength in emu
In SI units:
##F_{N}=k_A \dfrac{P^2}{r_m^2}=10^{-7} \dfrac{({1.25\times 10^{-7}})^2}{10^{-4}}=1.5625 \times 10^{-17} \neq 10^{-5}N=1dyne##
where ##P## is that same pole strength in SI units
with ##P=1.25\times10^{-7}p## (see here)
Now why am I getting two different results in emu and SI for the same configuration?
