• When the dipoles are not aligned along each other there would be a torque or couple on
each of them and it is,
• When the dipoles are oriented 90o each other -- (9).

• By assuming image current, once can obtain the force between the currents I1 = I2 = I by
replacing r as 2h and I1 I2 as I2 in eq. 1. i.e.
F= = = ------ (2)
• Another example of induced magnetic force is that between a long current carrying filament
and a thin layer superconducting plane shown in Fig.11. As the current filament is brought
close to the superconducting layer, supercurrents are setup such that they oppose the
external current carrying wire to maintain zero field inside the Type-I superconductor.

• The magnetic force between the superconducting layer and the current filament is ,
F = ------ (3)
• Again an image current filament can be used to replace the effect of the layer but in this
case, the image current is of opposite sense to the source current that is I1 = -I2 = I, r = 2h
as in eq.1.
• The same effect of flux exclusion and repulsive force can be obtained with a normal
conducting layer of thickness and electric conductivity by moving the current filament
parallel to the parallel to the flat sheet with velocity v.
• The repulsive force normal to the sheet is, F = ---- (4)
