magnetism Flashcards
Domain
Group of atoms having a similar magnetic orientation
Right-hand rule for current x magnetic field
Curl right hand with thumb pointing in positive current, fingers point in direction of magnetic field
Right-hand rule for magnetic force
Thumb: velocity
Palm: FB
4 fingers: B
Equation for Magnetic Field of a wire
B = µ0 * I / (2 * pi * r)
Equation for Magnetic Force for uniform magnetic fields
FB = qvB*sin(theta)
Properties of motion due to magnetic field
Circular motion (Fc = FB)
Positive: right hand rule
Negative: Right-hand rule but in reverse
Equation of Magnetic Force for current-carrying wires
FB = ILB*sin(theta)
Properties of 2 current-carrying wires
Same current direction, attract
Different current direction, repel
Equation for flux
Φ=BA
Equation for emf
ℰ=ΔΦ/t
ℰ=BLv
Induced Currents
ℰ=IR
P = ℰI
Lenz’s Law
- poles of magnet moving into a loop are switches
- magnet reverses direction
- magnet leaves field as opposed to entering it
current direction reverses
