Magnet Myths and Misconceptions

[EMJunkie]

@All refuting the Iron Filing contrives!

Ever heard of Spin Polarisation - Please do some homework! Its basic Science!

Again something else that refutes Non-Sense of Magnets not having an equator - for the same reason Planets revolve the Galactic Plane, Why does the Frog become weightless in the "Middle" of the Field, where the Bloch Wall is:

[EMJunkie]

Do you understand that you just killed your own argument against iron filings?  By inducing a pole that is opposite polarity, the magnetized soft iron reduces the reluctance gap between the poles.  Ergo the field set-up by the newly magnetized soft iron only intensifies the field that was already in the region of the dipole they surround.  Ergo their alignment does in fact correspond to the field direction.  Ergo since they do not turn towards the dipole at the dipole center, the proposition that the field turns there is false.

MarkE and TK,

Magnetics since the very early days has stated: "magnetic field lines always form closed loops"

Iron Filings show clearly an approximate 70% LOSS of Magnetic Field Line Closure - How do you account for this AMAZING fact!

Really Ridiculous Science is no longer holding water! But yet its still being preached by the Priest's here on ou.com! People are smarter than that!

How is it that Ferro-Fluid can show a TOTALLY DIFFERENT Pattern to Iron Filings? Iron Fillings are Conductive! Conductivity is another part of Magnetism, that's why its now called Electromagnetism!  Electric is at 90 Degrees to Magnetic! Really people please add some logic to your piffle! "Coriolis Effect" in Ferro Fluid:

Where did you ever learn that the Coriolis effect has anything to do with magnetism? I'd like to see that reference, please.

No where.  What I said/meant was what I was taught about the Coriolis effect agreed with what Chis said about it. (It being the Coriolis Effect)..about the magnetism and equator Bloch wall, I said it was interesting and I will have to think about that.

Chris:

Yes, water is very slightly diamagnetic and in the presence of a strong enough magnetic field a frog can be made to float in air.

It looks to me like all that you are doing is paraphrasing stuff that you have read about magnetism from junk sources.  In those books they talk about all sorts of stuff and try to connect it with magnetism.  Unfortunately it's just not true.  It's a form of alternative pulp fiction.  I remember having a debate with a guy that told me that the moon was changing in its orbit and something "big" was going to happen.  I told him that was impossible.  I told him that there were tens of thousands of amateur astronomers and if it was really true we would hear about it.  He had nothing to say, he was jut parroting stuff that he had read.

Can you make a case for a Bloch Wall being at the center of a bar magnet without talking about unrelated matters?

They do.

That's a nice assertion.  Care to back it up?  Care to show how if we introduce iron filings that 70% of the field lines that previously went pole to pole no longer make it?  Care to show where the iron filings supposedly send those lines off to?

Actual reliable data always tells the true story.  The story you are telling is just odd.

"Coriolis Effect" in Ferro Fluid:

Now you have just gone into left field.  In a TEM wave the propagating electric field is at 90 degrees to the propagating magnetic field.
