1 Magnetism

2 Magnetism Since ancient times, certain materials, called magnets, have been known to have the property of attracting tiny pieces of metal. This attractive property is called magnetism. N S Bar Magnet N S

3 Magnetic Poles S N Iron filings The strength of a magnet is concentrated at the ends, called north and south “poles” of the magnet. N S E W Compass Bar magnet A suspended magnet: N-seeking end and S-seeking end are N and S poles.

4 Magnetic Attraction-Repulsion
Magnetic Forces: Like Poles Repel Unlike Poles Attract

5 Magnetic Field Lines We can describe magnetic field lines by imagining a tiny compass placed at nearby points. N S The direction of the magnetic field B at any point is the same as the direction indicated by this compass. Field B is strong where lines are dense and weak where lines are sparse.

6 B = Fmagnetic qv Magnetic Field F = magnetic force of charged particle
q = magnitude of charge v = speed of charge

7 Field Lines Between Magnets
Unlike poles N S Attraction Leave N and enter S N Repulsion Like poles

8 Magnetic Field of a Current Carrying Wire
A current-carrying conductor produces a magnetic field Using the right hand rule the thumb is the direction of the current and your fingers are the direction of the field……clockwise or counterclockwise

9 Direction of Magnetic Force
The right hand rule: With a flat right hand, point thumb in direction of velocity v, fingers in direction of B field. The flat hand pushes in the direction of force F. B v F B v F N S The force is greatest when the velocity v is perpendicular to the B field. The deflection decreases to zero for parallel motion. Use left hand for negative charges.

10 Indicating Direction of B-fields
One way of indicating the directions of fields perpen-dicular to a plane is to use crosses X and dots · : A field directed into the paper is denoted by a cross “X” like the tail feathers of an arrow. X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X · · · · A field directed out of the paper is denoted by a dot “ ” like the front tip end of an arrow.

11 Practice With Directions:
What is the direction of the force F on the charge in each of the examples described below? Up F + v X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X v + Left F · · · · Up F · · · · - v - v F Right negative q

12 Electromagnetic Induction
Process of inducing a current in a circuit with a changing magnetic field. Suppose a bar magnet is pushed into a coil of wire. As the magnet moves into the coil, the strength of the magnetic field within the coil increases, and a current is induced in the circuit. This induced current in turn produces its own magnetic field, whose direction can be found using the right hand rule.

13 3 Ways to Induce Current 1. Circuit is moved into or out of magnetic field 2. Circuit is rotated in the magnetic field 3. Intensity of magnetic field is varied
