Magnets and the magnetic field Electric currents create magnetic fields Magnetic fields of wires, loops, and solenoids Magnetic forces on charges and currents Magnets and magnetic materials Chapter 24 Magnetic Fields and Forces Topics: Sample question: This image of a patient’s knee was made with magnetic fields, not x rays. How can we use magnetic fields to visualize the inside of the body? Slide 24-1

Magnetic Fields Around Us Slide 24-14

Key Points Three types of magnetic interactions 1.no interaction with either pole of a magnet => object is non-magnetic 2.attracted to both poles of a magnet => object is magnetic 3.Attracted to one pole and repelled by the other pole => object is a magnet Magnetic field vector from a bar magnet is a super position of the magnetic field vectors from the N and S poles: Vector from N pole points away from N pole Vector from S pole points towards S pole Field lines form complete loops inside and outside of magnet Field lines outside magnet go from N to S poles Field lines inside magnet go from S to N poles Magnetic Field vectors at a point are tangential to Magnetic Field Lines

Magnetic Fields from Two Magnets Bar Magnets A and B are placed at right angles. Two compasses, X and Y are placed so that they are equidistant from the two magnets as shown A.) The arrow in compass X indicates the direction in which the North pole of the compass is pointing. Indicate the North and South ends of both magnets in the diagram B.) Draw an arrow in compass Y to show the direction in which the North pole of the compass needle would point. Slide 24-2
