Detailed Solution

Force between two Magnets is given by $F = \frac{μ_{0}}{4 π} \frac{6 M_{1} M_{2}}{r^{4}}, M_{1} a n d M_{2} a r e t h e m a g n e t i c m o m e n t s o f t h e m a g n e t s$ . This is a result using the concepts of potential energy of a magnet placed in a external magnetic field.
