Comment on A rogue object so strange, scientists aren’t sure what to call it.
Gust@piefed.social 1 day agoThat is correct. It also has nothing to do with the original claim I made and you disagreed with, which is that the object with the greater magnetic field would be able to attract particles from farther away.

Well, that statement is completely incorrect. The magnetic field doesn’t attract particles, which I stated in my earlier comment.

That is a fundamental misunderstanding of how magnetic fields and the forces they induce work. Attract and guide are both words that mean the same thing in this context, ie “apply force to.” Not sure what else to tell you; I dont feel like teaching you electrodynamics so I wont reply to this thread again.

You won’t, because you fundamentally misunderstand what’s happening.
