Headphones, telephone ringers, door bell solenoids, shower curtain weights, and many other items. Most are permenant magnets, but some are electromagnets.
Does shape effect the magnetic repulsion between two magnets?
Yes, the shape of the magnets can affect the magnetic repulsion between them. Different shapes can influence the magnetic field distribution and how the magnetic forces interact with each other. For example, two magnets with a larger surface area in contact will experience stronger repulsion compared to two magnets with a smaller contact area.
Why does a magnet exert a force on another magnet when the two magnets are not in contact?
Magnets have magnetic fields that extend into the space around them. When two magnets are brought close together, these fields interact with each other, resulting in a force of attraction or repulsion between the magnets. This force occurs even when the magnets are not in direct contact with each other.
