The magnetic force only acts on moving charged particles, but the paperclip has moving charged particles inside it...emmkayy41 said:

If the net charge between the paperclip and the environment is zero, then how can it be measured?thiotimoline said:
A magnetic force is a type of force that is exerted between two objects that have magnetic properties. It is a fundamental force of nature, along with gravity and electromagnetic force.
Magnetic force can be calculated using the formula F = qvBsinθ, where F is the force, q is the charge of the object, v is the velocity of the object, B is the magnetic field, and θ is the angle between the velocity and magnetic field vectors.
Yes, magnetic force can act on uncharged bodies. This is because all matter has some level of magnetic properties, even if they are not visibly magnetic. This is why, for example, a paperclip can be attracted to a magnet even though it is not charged.
The strength of a magnetic force is affected by several factors, including the charge and velocity of the objects, the strength and direction of the magnetic field, and the distance between the objects. The direction and orientation of the objects also play a role in determining the strength of the magnetic force.
Magnetic force and electricity are closely related as they are both part of the electromagnetic force. Moving charges, which create electric currents, can also create magnetic fields. And, conversely, changing magnetic fields can induce electric currents. This relationship is described by Maxwell's equations.
