Introductory Video
8
Electric Field, Magnetic Field A charge will generate an electric field around itself Any other charge (small positive test charge) that enters the field will experience a force on it = electric force
9
Electric Field, Magnetic Field Same is true for a magnet or an electric current (moving charge) Each of these produce a magnetic field around them When another magnet or electric current enters the magnetic field, it will experience a force on it Direction of magnetic field is determined by relation to magnetic field of the earth
10
Electric Field, Magnetic Field
12
Magnetic Fields Magnetic fields are produced by permanent magnets and by electric currents
13
Magnetic Field from Coil
14
Magnetic Field from Solenoid
15
Magnetic Field from a Loop of Wire
17
Magnetic Field from a Straight Wire
18
Electric Field, Magnetic Field Magnets and electric currents (moving charges) produce magnetic fields around them When another magnet or electric current enters the magnetic field, it will experience a force on it
19
Force on a Current
21
Using the right hand place the thumb in the direction of the current and the fingers in the direction of the magnetic field. The direction away from the palm is the direction of the resulting force.
22
Force on a Current Current Field Force Thumb Fingers Palm
23
Force on a Length of Wire Θ is the angle between the current and the direction of the magnetic field
24
Force on a Length of Wire Θ is the angle between the current and the direction of the magnetic field I B θ
25
Magnetic Force on a Moving Charge
28
Work Done by Magnetic Force None Since the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity, it cannot do work Magnets in particle accelerators merely deflect or direct particles Electric fields are used to increase the particle’s kinetic energy
29
Orsted’s Discovery The magnitude of the magnetic field B created by the current in a wire varies linearly with the current in the wire and inversely with the perpendicular distance from the wire.
30
What does that remind you of?
32
Orsted’s Discovery
33
µ 0 is the magnetic permeability of a vacuum (ε 0 is the electric permittivity of a vacuum)
34
Orsted’s Discovery Unit for the magnetic field is the tesla (T) Magnetic field of the earth at the surface is 10 -4 T A high voltage transmission line carrying a 2000 A current produces a magnetic field of 8x10 -5 T
35
Direction of the Magnetic Field
37
Strength of the Magnetic Field
38
Field Strength from Single Wire Loop
39
Field Strength from a Solenoid
40
Field Strength Between Two Current-Carrying Wires
43
The force on each wire will be the same, even though the magnetic fields produced by each wire individually is different
44
Fun Facts: The Ampere is defined through the magnetic force between two parallel wires. If the force on a 1m length of two wires that are 1m apart and carrying equal currents is 2x10 -7 N, then the current in each wire is defined to be 1 A.
45
Fun Facts: The coulomb is defined in terms of the ampere as the amount of charge that flows past a certain point in a wire when a current of 1 A flows for 1 second.
46

47
Summary: Are you able to Find the force on moving charges and currents, in magnetic fields and appreciate the definition of the ampere as a fundamental SI unit, using the right-hand rule for forces where appropriate.
