Reply to comment by Mr__Teal in If I have two identical rare earth magnets and put them together, is the power of the combined magnets doubled? What about 3 or 4 magnets (tripled? quadrupled?)? by asdfredditusername

So, let's make this more clear:

a stack of 10 x 1mm thick magnets with a pull strength of 1kg each
a stack of 2 x 5mm thick magnets with a pull strength of 5kg each

Would the resulting magnetic force at the end of each stack be the same: 10kg? (give or take a little)

So would a series of thin stacked magnets combine to have more charge than a series of very thick magnets? (Assuming an individual magnet of each had the same strength)
