I am trying to calculate the forces between ten small cylindrical magnets stacked (inside a tube so they cannot flip/shift) so that consecutive magnets are repelling. The bottom magnet is attatched to the bottom of the tube with, let's say, the positive pole facing up. Then the second has a positive pole facing down, third has it facing up.. etc. So they appear to be floating above each other. I have a stick which i can use to push on the top magnet and compress the space between each magnet.
If anyone could give some insight on how to calculate the force between the magnets or how to find the maximum force I can push down on them with, it would be really helpful because I can't seem to find much online with this kind of set-up.
Thanks :)
