Lift
Magnetic materials and systems are able to attract or press each other apart or together with a force dependent on the magnetic field and the area of the magnets, and a magnetic pressure can then be defined.
The magnetic pressure of a magnetic field on a superconductor can be calculated by:
where is the force per unit area in pascals, is the magnetic field just above the superconductor in teslas, and = 4π×10−7 N·A−2 is the permeability of the vacuum.

“Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns.”
