Magnetic Fields • Magnetic dipoles cause space to be modified in their vicinity. • They form a “magnetic field”. • The magnetic field caused by magnetic “poles” is analogous to the electric field caused by electric “poles” or “charges”.
N S MagneticField, B
Compasses • If they are allowed to select their own orientation, magnets align so that the north pole points in the direction of the magnetic field. • Compasses are magnets that can easily rotate so that they can align themselves to a magnetic field. • The north pole of the compass points in the direction of the magnetic field.
Sample Problem • We say that a compass points to the Earth’s North Magnetic Pole (which is near the North Pole). • Is the North Magnetic Pole the north pole of the Earth’s Magnetic Field?
Magnetic “Monopoles” • Do not exist! • In this way, magnetic poles differ from electric poles (charges), which can be separated into electric monopoles.
Units of Magnetic Field • Tesla (SI) • N/(C m/s) • N/(A m) • Gauss • 1 Tesla = 104 gauss
Magnetic Force on Particles • Magnetic fields cause the existence of magnetic forces. • A magnetic force is exerted on a particle within a magnetic field only if • the particle has a charge. • the charged particle is moving with at least a portion of its velocity perpendicular to the magnetic field.
Magnetic Force on a Charged Particle • magnitude: F = qvBsin • q: charge in Coulombs • v: speed in meters/second • B: magnetic field in Tesla • : angle between v and B • direction: Right Hand Rule • FB = q v x B (This is a “vector cross product”)
The Right Hand rule to Determine a Vector Cross Product • Align your hand along the first vector. • Orient your wrist so that you can “cross” your hand into the second vector. • Your thumb gives you the direction of the third vector (which is the result).
