11) Magbetic Field and Properties of Tissues Flashcards
Magnetic field
It’s generated by moving electrical charges
Any electric current causes a magnetic field
Magnetic induction
Magnetic induction B is the vector describing the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field
Graphic representation of magnetic field
The magnitude of the field line is proportional to the density of the field line
Magnetic field lines are closed loops
Direction of magnetic induction
Pointing the right hand thumb in the direction of the moving positive charge and the rest of the fingers in the direction of the magnetic field
Magnitude of the magnetic induction
dB= u_o/4 pi x IdL/r^2 x sinø
Current is I
r is the distance
U_o is free space
Lorentz force
Acts on charges moving in a magnetic field
Depends on magnitude of induction B
Magnitude Q
Velocity V
F=qvBsinø
Work of magnetic force
Magnetic force can do no work as it is perpendicular to the direction of movement
It’s not conservative
Movement of charged particles in a magnetic field
The Lorentz force acts as a centripetal force
The particle performs circular motion
DAWING
Application examples
The radius of circle depends the mass, velocity, charge
It’s used to control movement of charges particles in electron microscopy and mass spectrometers
Forces between current carrying wires
Current carrying wires interact with each other by magnetic force
Any current carrying wire includes a magnetic field
Ampere’s force law
The interaction force between 2 current elements is
dF= u_o (IdL)(I2dL2)/4pi r^2 sinø1sinø2
2 parallel wires attract each other if their currents flow in the same direction
Current is measured in amps
Magnetic dipole moment of a current loop
Direction is determined by the right hand grip rule
Magnitude is P_m=IS
Torque on magnetic dipole
In external magnetic fields a couple is generated
Magnetic moment aligns with the field lines
Orbital magnetic moment Of electron
Electron with
Charge e
Velocity v
Radius r
P_mo=1/2evr
Spin magnetic moment of the electron
P_ms=h/4pi e/m
h is planks constant
e and m is the charge and mass of the electron
