CH-28: Magnetic Fields

CH-28: Magnetic Fields. Q:What Produces a Magnetic Field?. Permanent magnet: Elementary particles such as electrons have an intrinsic magnetic field around them. The magnetic fields of the electrons in certain materials add together to give a net magnetic field around the material.

  1. CH-28: Magnetic Fields Q:What Produces a Magnetic Field? Permanent magnet: Elementary particles such as electrons have an intrinsic magnetic field around them. The magnetic fields of the electrons in certain materials add together to give a net magnetic field around the material.

  2. The Definition of Magnetic Field • Magnetic Field can be defined similar to that of electric field: Magnetic Field, is defined in terms of the force, acting on a test particle with charge q moving through the field with velocity, : The SI unit of the magnetic field is the tesla,Tnamed after the Croatian-born American engineer Nikola Tesla (1856-1943).

  3. Right-Hand Rule: Finding the direction of (a) The right-hand rule (in which is swept into through the smaller angle between them) gives the direction of as the direction of the thumb. (b) If q is positive, then the direction is in the direction of . (c) If q is negative, then the direction is opposite that of .
