Unit Lesson Plan –Sources of Magnetic Field

Teacher: Subject: AP Physics C EM


AP Physics C Standards:  1. Forces on moving charges in magnetic fields Students should
understand the force experienced by a charged particle in a magnetic
field, so they can:
a) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force in terms of q, v,
and B, and explain why the magnetic force can perform no work.
b) Deduce the direction of a magnetic field from information about the
forces experienced by charged particles moving through that field.
c) Describe the paths of charged particles moving in uniform
magnetic fields.
d) Derive and apply the formula for the radius of the circular path of a
charge that moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field.
e) Describe under what conditions particles will move with constant
velocity through crossed electric and magnetic fields.
 2. Forces on current-carrying wires in magnetic fields Students
should understand the force exerted on a current-carrying wire in a
magnetic field, so they can:
a) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force on a straight
segment of current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field.
b) Indicate the direction of magnetic forces on a current-carrying loop
of wire in a magnetic field, and determine how the loop will tend to
rotate as a consequence of these forces.
c) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the torque experienced by
a rectangular loop of wire carrying a current in a magnetic field.
 3. Fields of long current-carrying wires Students should understand
the magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire,
so they can:
a) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the field at a point in the
vicinity of such a wire.
b) Use superposition to determine the magnetic field produced by two
long wires.
c) Calculate the force of attraction or repulsion between two long
current carrying wires.
 4. Biot-Savart law and Ampere’s law
a) Students should understand the Biot-Savart law, so they can: 1)
Deduce the magnitude and direction of the contribution to the
magnetic field made by a short straight segment of current-carrying
wire. 2) Derive and apply the expression for the magnitude of B on
the axis of a circular loop of current.
b) Students should understand the statement and application of
Ampere’s law in integral form, so they can: 1) State the law precisely.
2) Use Ampere’s law, plus symmetry arguments and the right-hand
rule, to relate magnetic field strength to current for planar or
cylindrical symmetries.
c) Students should be able to apply the superposition principle so
they can determine the magnetic field produced by combinations of
the configurations listed above.
