What is the formula for the potential energy of a piece of diamagnetic
metal (with mass=1kg) in the same room as a typical MRI machine as a
function of the distance D between that mass and the center of the MRI
machine if its position is colinear with the axis of the bed of the
MRI machine?  ...if its location is also 1meter away from this axis?

The main static field from a MRI machine is fairly regular, with
interior strenghts of 0.5 to 4 Tesla. But the forces developed vary
widely depending on object shape. What is the diamagnetic material and
shape object you are interested in?
