Magnetic fields are force fields that arise from magnets and electric currents. Magnetic field lines emanate from the poles of magnets and encircle current-carrying conductors. Charged particles experience a magnetic force perpendicular to both their velocity and the magnetic field. This causes charged particles to move in circular paths in uniform magnetic fields. The magnetic field strength is quantified in teslas and can be determined using Ampere's law, relating the magnetic field to the current producing it.

Magnetic Field Sources

Magnetic Fields
• A force field that denotes
the area in which the non-
contact force of
permanent magnets or
current carrying
conductors can exert their
influence
• Fields are concentrated
at the poles
• Same properties with
Electric field lines except
that there is no magnetic
monopole
Magnetic field lines
Magnetic Force

• Like poles repel, opposite


attract
• An object that contains iron
but is not itself magnetized
is attracted by either pole
of a permanent magnet.
Magnetic Force
Magnetic interactions can be
described as:
• A moving charge or a current creates a
magnetic field in the surrounding space (in
addition to its electric field)
• The magnetic field exerts a force Fm on any
other moving charge or current that is present
in the field.
• The magnetic force Fm acting on a positive
charge q moving with velocity v is
perpendicular to both Fm and the magnetic field
B.
Units of Magnetic Fields
• SI units: tesla, T
1 tesla = 1 T = 1 N/A·m
• Or: gauss, G
1 G = 10-4 T
Magnetic Force on Moving Charge
• Moving charged
r particles are deflected in magnetic
r r
fields F = q v × B
• Right-Hand Rule

Magnetic Force on Moving Charge
The magnetic force is always perpendicular to v; a
particle moving under the action of a magnetic field
alone moves with a constant speed.

Velocity Selector
• Particles of a specific
speed can be selected
from the beam using an
arrangement of electric
and magnetic fields called
a velocity selector.

Ampere’s Law
• Used to determine the magnetic field yielded by current-
carrying wire
• Ampere’s law states that the product B and length of line
segment around any closed path equals µ0 times the net
current through the area enclosed by the path.
• Direction of Magnetic field is determined by corkscrew method

Example
Suspending a current with a current
A horizontal wire carries a current I1=80 A dc. A second
parallel wire 20 cm below it must carry how much
current I2 so that it doesn’t fall due to gravity? The lower
wire is a homogenous wire with a mass of 0.12 g per
meter of length.
F/L = mg/L=1.18 x 10-3 N/m
µ 0I1I2/2π L = 1.18 x 10-3 N/m
I2= 15 A
Definitions
• Ampere current flowing in each of the two
long parallel conductors 1 m apart, which
results in a force of exactly 2 x 10-7 N/m of
length of each conductor.
