Symbol fo Magnetic Field mks units [Tesla = T = N/(A m)] othe common unit [Gauss = G] [1 G = 10-4 T] This magnetic field eets a magnetic foce on anothe moving chaged paticle. F = q v sin θ Diection: Foce Right Hand Rule #1 (Foce RHR #1) q q = chage of paticle v v = speed of paticle = angle between magnetic field & velocity vectos 1. Cul finges fom v diection into diection. 2. Thumb gives foce diection fo + chage. Foce diection is opposite fo chage. The size and diection of the magnetic foce can be epessed with one vecto equation using the coss poduct. F = qv
2. Motion of Chaged Paticles in -Fields f a chaged paticle moves though a unifom magnetic field, the path of the paticle will be: staight (no foce) if the angle between the velocity and field is 0 o 180 a cicula ac if the angle between the velocity and field is 90 a spial if the angle between the velocity and field is some othe angle Cicula Ac Motion Fo the cicula ac, whee the velocity is pependicula to the field, the foce is a centipetal foce which gives the paticle a centipetal acceleation. F = q v = mv2 m = mass of paticle = adius of cicle This foce equation can be solved fo the elevant quantity. ------------------------------------------------------------ Application 1: Synchoton (Paticle Acceleato) Acceleate chage paticles with an electic foce as they tavel a cicula path with a fied adius. The magnetic field necessay to keep them moving in that cicle is found fom the above foce equation. = mv q ------------------------------------------------------------
3 Application 2: Mass Spectomete onize atoms/molecules. Acceleate ions using an electic field. Send ions into a velocity selecto so that the ions that make it though the selecto have the same speed. Send these ions into a magnetic field so that they tavel cicula acs. Diffeent masses give diffeent ac adii so the masses of the ions can be distinguished. Thus, the ion species can be detemined. ions v E acceleating plates velocity selecto (pependicula E & fields) cicula ac egion ( field only) n the velocity selecto, the electic foce balances the magnetic foce only fo the ions that tavel at the taget speed of v = E nside the ac egion, the mass of the ion is found fom the above foce equation. m = q v C. Staight Wie A cuent-caying staight wie segment sitting in a magnetic field feels a magnetic foce. F = l sin θ = cuent = length of segment = angle between field & cuent diection Diection: Foce Right Hand Rule #2 (Foce RHR #2) 1. Cul finges fom diection into diection. 2. Thumb gives foce diection.

Cuent Loops & Motos f a cuent-caying coil of wie is sitting in a magnetic field, the net magnetic foce on the loop is zeo. Howeve, thee can be a net toque on the loop that can cause it to otate about a fied ais. Peak toque [N-m] τ ma = NA Aveage toque [N-m] τ ave = 2 π NA Mechanical powe (due to otation) [W = J/s] P = τω = 2πτf N = numbe of tuns in coil = magnetic field [T] A = aea of one tun [m 2 ] = cuent though coil [A] Eample: An electic moto has 200 windings whee each winding has an aea of 20 cm 2. The coil sits in a magnetic field of 0.01 T. A cuent of 5 A flows though the coil when it otates at 600 pm. Find (a) the aveage toque eeted on the coil and (b) the aveage powe it delives. Ans.

Gauss Law fo Magnetism & Ampee s Law Gauss s Law fo Magnetism states that the magnetic flu though any closed suface is zeo. da = 0 This is a statement of the fact that magnetic field lines fom closed loops. Thee ae no magnetic monopoles obseved in natue. Ampee s Law is an altenative to the iot-savat Law fo finding the magnetic field due to a cuent. t is sometimes easie to use than the iot-savat Law. ds = μ o Like the iot-savat Law, Ampee s Law states that the magnetic field stength is popotional to the cuent.
