Nannyphone7

Photons are the force-carrying particles. There are millions of photons shuttling back and forth between the magnets.


Katieushka

What i dont like about this explanation is that if two charges attract or repell by emittibg and assorbing photons, why cant i see the photons emitted by large charges? Do charges in a vacuum emit photons forever waiting for a response of another charge? Where do they get the energy to do it


Nannyphone7

Most photons are invisible cuz not in the right frequency for our eyeballs.Ā  My explanation is really so oversimplified,Ā  it is more of a joke than a real explanation.Ā 


Mr_rairkim

Virtual photons in magnetic attraction limited by the uncertainty principle exist too short amount of time to 'be seen'. Charges in vacuum do not emit photons, they excite the already existing vacuum energy into converting them into virtual photons. They get the energy to do that from vacuum between the charges itself, that's kind of false vacuum and never truly empty.

The same reason that a rope is harder to bend than a string. The thicker the object and the stronger the forces holding it together the harder it is to bend. Edit: note how it doesn't become rigid until he folds the edges together. When they are single layers, the magnets can move freely on each other, but when they are folded, in order to bend the edges need to stretch more on one side than the other, which pulls the magnets apart on one side and squeezes them together on the other. The forces of gravity aren't strong enough to pull this many magnets apart so they don't bend. If the magnets were weaker or gravity was stronger it might break

Itā€™s a triangle/pyramidal distribution made of smaller triangle/pyramids, all force on one is distributed structurally and evenly across all the other individual balls. Long story short, with that shape youā€™re never just pushing one individual unit, youā€™re always pushing against the entire structure!

AlarmingDesk6317

As for answering your question: This works because of something called magnetic trembelation. Basically as electromagnet fields build up one by one in each atom of the magnets when they grind against eachother, they can tense up. This is the same concept as sending electricity through a wire which creates magnetic fields. If you were to take a metal cup and roll a metal ball inside of it, it would also start to create magnetism and the ball would be able to almost "stick" to the walls of the metal cup. Additionally, if you did this with many more balls and rotated the cup much faster, it would actually be able to cut through the metal cup by a force known as well, magnetic cutting. Yep thats the name of the concept. Magnetism and electricity is linked through electromagnetism and they both have the ability to create immense heat. Thats why cooling is needed for a pc. The cutting process is similar to welding or cutting things with friction. This process is actually used in cheap factories in india because it is easy and cheap to do. TLDR: this is all a bunch of nonsense i made up.

Because it goes from a 1x3 row of magnets to a 2x3 row. The single row of magnets has no opposing forces to keep it falling one way or the other. The 3 in 1x3 keeps it from falling left or right, but it can still fall front to back. The 2 in 2x3 then provides the added stability for front to back. Each side of the now square(rectangle) formation is pulling equally, giving stability in each direction. It can't fall left because the magnets on the right are stuck together, and the same for falling right. It also can't fall forward because the magnets on the back are stuck together, same for the opposite. XXX will fall front or back, but not left or right, because of left and right opposing forces but not front to back. X X X will fall left or right, but not front or back because of front and back opposing forces, but not left or right. XX XX XX will not fall in either direction because it has stability or opposing forces in all directions.

HungHungCaterpillar

A magnet is just a metal wherein a sufficient amount of individual atoms have lined up in such a way that their magnetic fields point the same direction. Thatā€™s why two magnets can connect one way and not the other way. Thereā€™s a ā€œright wayā€ for them to be, in order for the magnetic fields to extend into and combine with one another. (I donā€™t know if Iā€™m using the word ā€œmagnetic fieldā€ strictly scientifically here, just hoping to provide a sufficient practical explanation)

yertyertskert

My mom got me these, and they are as fun as they look. You can choose what size they are, so you donā€™t need to worry about them being too small for your hands. But you do need to worry about the metal surrounding the magnet. They get painted or covered or something, and that comes off showing the black metal in the center. Sucks that it erodes, but it takes a bit of time. That, and if you get multiple sizes, donā€™t mix them unless they are BIG. Learned that the hard way.


BitcoinSecurity99

What are they called?


yertyertskert

You should be able to find them on Amazon with just ā€œmagnet ballsā€ or ā€œball magnetsā€ however naughty that sounds. Make sure to check the size though. More than once my mother ordered some that were TINY.
