In #MESExperiments 48 I have collaborated with Paul Mueller in producing a series of magnet drop tests for 3 different cylinder magnet types through 3 copper tubes. The experiments show that magnets glued together in repulsion can fall down significantly slower than if they were in attraction. These results open up new research areas for Lenz's Law and provide an indirect validation of Boyd Bushman's claim that magnets in repulsion fall slower in gravity.
