Mmmm Terry I am not sure it is that different, doesn't it require work to bring the ball back to starting position, as it does for the paper clip?
Also it's not clear to me what is being done to the magnets, can't they be left stationary? If you have to move them the energy analysis becomes complicated I am afraid. Stephen thanks for the brain teaser explanation, it sounds right. I'll read you tomorrow.
