The perpendicular force of the magnet to gravity doesn't negate gravity, the friction force does.

- RealityVoid 11y agoThat is correct, but only because of the particular position of the fridge magnet. The firction force from the magnet on the surface < magnetic pull(not always true, depends on the type of material the firdge and magnet is made of, but very likely true). Thus, if you put the magnet suspended on a horizontal surface, the magnetic force WOULD be the one holding it up.
