We have designed an experiment to verify the Coulomb’s law of magnetic monopole attraction using the concept of static friction both in horizontal and inclined surfaces. Although the concept of monopole has been put down still we can verify the law by adding some correction terms to it which arise due to the attraction and repulsion of other nearby poles. Charles Augustin de Coulomb, in 1777, showed that the forces of attraction or repulsion between electrically charged bodies and between magnetic monopoles (although presently the concept of magnetic monopole has been discarded because of lack of experimental verification still for computational purpose we use the term magnetic pole strength) obey an inverse square law like that derived for gravity by Newton. The law related to magnetic force may be stated
