Clip wire diameter d =      

Wire permeability μr = (if unknown use 1000)

Magnet diameter D =      

Magnet thickness L =

Magnet remanence Br =

Spacer thickness t =      

      

Force acting on the clip F (N) =            B in wire =

An assumption is also made that the straight parts of the paper clip are fully overlapping the magnet. The calculated force can differ significantly from that occurring in reality, especially if other magnetic components are present in the vicinity of the magnet.// ||| ↑ {{page>insert/paypal}} {{tag>Calculators Cylindrical_magnet Magnetic_force Paper_clip Paper_sheet}}
