I also thought about this spherical magnet idea, and agreed that there would be no field possible on the outside... so i have a few questions 1) The inside is also canceled out right? 2) so what does it become? a metal? and since there is no more magnetic force, what happens when u remove the 'glue' keeping the many triangular pieces of magnet used to construct it.. will all the pieces fly apart immediately? 3)what if there was one piece missing? a small hole in the sphere? would there be a force around that hole be alot greater or normal? 4) the fields cancel each other out right, So where does the field go? between the magnets? and only between them?
Re: What happens to a FAILED Spherical 'monopole' magnet once it is a sphere???
