1 Magnetism and ElectroMagnetism

2 Magnetism in Technology

3 Quick Definitions One charge Two Charges There is no “magnetic charge”
Monopole Two Charges Dipole There is no “magnetic charge” “magnetic monopole”

4 Vector Products Dot Product Cross Product Vector x Vector = Scalar
Vector x Vector = Vector Right-hand rule Non-Commutative

5 Quantum Origins While there is no magnetic charge that makes a particle “north” or “south”, every particle does have a magnetic dipole (north-south pair) Magnetic dipole called “spin” Note: nothing is actually ‘spinning’ ‘Spin’ is a fundamental property of matter

6 Types of Magnets Ferromagnetic Paramagnetic Diamagnetic
Magnetic moments of unpaired electrons aligned in one direction Paramagnetic Random alignment due to thermal fluxuations Diamagnetic Align to counter an external magnetic field

7 Periodic Table

8 Ferromagnetism “Permanent Magnets” are a result of the energy structure of the incomplete 3d shell in some materials Unpaired spin in 3d shells with protective 4s orbitals

9 ElectroMagnetism Spin is one source of magnetism
Moving charges also create a magnetic field that rotates around the axis of motion + + Electric Field Magnetic Field

10 3D Vector Convention Consider the field in and out of the page being shown with arrows (like bow-and-arrows) Coming toward you (Out of the page) Going away from you (Into of the page)

11 Fun Fact: Relativity Because magnetic fields are created by a moving charge, and movement is relative to your reference frame, magnetism is a result of relativity. This is why Einstein’s work in electrodynamics lead him to develop the Theory of Special Relativity

12 Electrodynamics If we consider a number of charges, we end up with a resultant magnetic field that looks like this Right Hand Rule: Thumb: Current Fingers: B-Field

13 Solenoids: Wire Coils Applying this rule, we can figure out what the magnetic field around a coil looks like.

14 Solenoids We can create a region of an aligned magnetic field.

15 Moving Charge in a B-Field
Units of B-field: Tesla

16 Practice Problems Section Review Page 767, Questions 1-3

19 Deflection of a moving charge in a B-Field
Length Contraction An object traveling relative to an observer will be shorter in the observers frame Time Dilation A clock travelling relative to an observer will measure time passing more slowly than in the observers frame.
