Torque on a Current Carrying Wire
21
The greater the magnetic moment of a coil, the greater the torque that is applied will be.
22
Galvanometer
23
Galvanometer Used to measure a currentUsed to measure a current Consists of a loop of wire within a magnetic field and a spring to resist motionConsists of a loop of wire within a magnetic field and a spring to resist motion Current through the loop causes a force to rotate the loopCurrent through the loop causes a force to rotate the loop –Direction of rotation depends on direction of current
24
Motors Current is supplied and the magnetic field puts a force on the loop Current is supplied and the magnetic field puts a force on the loop Brushes allow current to be reversed every 180 degrees. This allows full rotation.
