Re: How strong a magnetic field do you need to move water?

Hi,
     I am very pleased that you apparently have read parts of my book, 
Mondo Magnets.  The magnetic force on water is a product of the field 
strength and how rapidly it is changing with distance.  In the 
demonstration here  

     http://www.hfml.ru.nl/froglev.html

they succeed in levitating a live frog and a ball of water in a VERY 
LARGE field of 160,000 Oe! A quart of water could also be levitated 
simply by using a superconducting magnet with a larger bore. 
     You may also enjoy my Mondo Magnets DVD which is for sale at
