magnetic field

Any charged particle in motion creates a

2

moving particle

induces a magnetic field in a plane perpendicular motion

3

closed loops

The lines of a magnetic field are always

New cards
4

magnetic dipole

  • is the limit of either a closed loop of electric current or a pair of poles as the size of the source is reduced to zero while keeping the magnetic moment constant.

  • small magnet created by the electron orbit

  • a dipole with opposing magnetic poles

New cards
5

dipole

a pair of equal and opposite electric charges or magnetic poles separated by a small distance.

New cards
6

Magnetic Domain

  • is a region within a magnetic material in which the magnetization is in a uniform direction.

  • An accumulation of many atomic magnets with their dipoles aligned

  • Rotation of orientation and increase in size of magnetic domains in response to an externally applied field.

New cards
7

Magnetic Permeability

• Is the ability of a material to attract the lines of magnetic field intensity

  • Naturally occurring magnets

  • Artificially induced permanent magnets

  • electromagnets

  • Nonmagnetic

  • Diamagnetic

  • Ferromagnetic

  • Paramagnetic

All matter can be classified according to the manner in which it interacts with an external magnetic field

New cards
10

Diamagnetic

tending to become magnetized in a direction at 180° to the applied magnetic field.

New cards
11

Ferromagnetic

– having a high susceptibility to magnetization, the strength of which depends on that of the applied magnetizing field, and which may persist after removal of the applied field. This is the kind of magnetism displayed by iron, and is associated with parallel magnetic alignment of neighboring atoms.

New cards
12

Paramagnetic

very weakly attracted by the poles of a magnet, but not retaining any permanent magnetism.

New cards
13

Magnetic Susceptibility

• The degree to which a material can be magnetized

New cards
14
  • agnetic Laws

  • Every magnet, no matter how small, has two poles: north and south.

  • Like magnetic poles repel and unlike magnetic poles attract

  • Ferromagnetic material can be made magnetic when placed in an external magnetic field.

  • The force between poles is proportional to the product of the magnetic pole strengths divided by the square of the distance between them.

Faraday’s Law

Electric current will be induced to flow in a circuit if some part of that circuit is in changing magnetic field.

New cards
23
  1. The strength of the magnetic field.

  2. The velocity of the magnetic field as it moves past the conductor.

  3. The angle of the conductor to the magnetic field.

  4. The number of turns in the conductor.

The magnitude of the induced current depends on the following four factors:

New cards
24

Lenz’ Law

Induced current flows in a direction such that it opposes the action that induced it

  1. Self-induction

  2. Mutual induction

2 Types of Induction

New cards
26

Self-Induction

The induction of an opposing EMF in a single coil by its own changing magnetic field.

New cards
27

Mutual Induction

The process of inducing a current flow through a secondary coil.

Electric Generator

  • Changes mechanical energy into electrical energy

  • a coil of wire is placed in a strong magnetic field between two poles of a magnet.

New cards
30

Electric Motor

  • Changes electrical energy into mechanical energy.

  • The same component but the source is electric no mechanical

  • The electric energy is supplied to the current loop to produce a mechanical motion, that is, the rotation of the loop in the magnetic field.

New cards
31

Direct Current Motor

• Energy is supplied to a series of wire loops • DC motor is one type of motor that uses the DC current to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. When the electric current passes through a coil in a magnetic field, a magnetic force will be generated which produces a torque in the DC motor

New cards
32

Induction Motor

• Energy is supplied to the external magnets
