Lets Review• Force equals mass times acceleration
– This is always true, even with magnetic force
• Centripetal force is caused by something– In the next couple of chapters the force will be
electromagnetism
• Torque equals force times lever arm• Electric fields are created by charged
particles– Electrons & protons
• Current equals amount of charge per unit time
The History of Magnetism• In the 4th century a Chinese
writing “Book of the Devil Valley Master” makes the first mention of magnetism
• “The lodestone makes iron come or it attracts it.“
• Around 201 used spoon shaped lodestones to show direction
• About 700 AD the Chinese magnetized a needle after noticing the lodestone could tranfer it’s magnetism to other materials
More History• In 1819 Danish physicist Hans Christian
Orsted (1777-1851) discovered by mere accident that a current carrying wire changed the deflection of a near by compass (watch for your self)
• This leads British physicist Michael Faraday (1791-1867) to demonstrate the process of induction in 1831 by producing a current in a wire by rotating a disc through a magnetic field
• This invention is called the Faraday Disc, which lead to today's generators
Magnetic Principles• Like “poles” repel like
– Magnetic poles are labeled as “North” and “South”
– This originates from the earths magnetic poles
– The Magnetic north pole of the earth is on Antarctica and the Magnetic South pole is in the northern part of Canada
– Since opposite poles attract the “North pole” of the compass points to the magnetic south pole – which is geographically North
– Confused?
Angle of declination• This is the difference
between true north and magnetic north.
• It changes through out the years, but still remains relatively close to an average value
• In New York the present declination angle is about 12o west, meaning the compass needle points 12o west of geographic north
It’s all about the pOles• Unlike electric field
lines that can start or end at infinity, magnetic field lines, up to this point in history, always form loops.
• There are always a North and South poles no matter how small you cut the magnet!
• Even cut all the way to a single electron.
So why aren’t all things magnets• All materials are
magnetic, but not all materials are magnets
• Inside materials exist magnetic domains
• When the domains align in the same direction the magnetic fields add together
• When the domains are random, some add and some subtract, causing a net filed on zero

The latest data• This picture shows the
direction of the earths magnetic field in 2006
• This shows the Earth s magnetic field will eventually flip, so compasses will point South, not North
• It turns out this flip occurs about every million years

Those lines?• The lines shown on the last slide are
magnetic lines of force, also know as Magnetic Field lines
• These are essentially the same as gravitational or electric field lines but show the direction a magnetized particle would move
• So place a piece of magnetized iron on a field line and it will or orient itself with its North pole facing the Blue line, or the magnetic South pole
Describing Direction• For electric flied we
mostly focused on 2-D representations
• Magnetic fields are perpendicular to electric fields, often we need to look at a three dimensional problem
• Look at table 21-1 on page 767 or the chart to the right

Magnetic force• Remember, all force
can be expressed by Newton second law
• Charge must be moving to experience a magnetic force
• The velocity of the moving charge must be perpendicular to the B(magnetic) – field
• The direction of the force is given by the “right-hand rule”
Right hand rule (cross product)• This is and easy way to find the direction in
space for either the B- Field, Force, or velocity direction.
• The magnetic force on a particle is a vector equal to:
• q is charge, v is velocity, and B is magnetic field strength
• However, as v and B become more parallel v x B goes to zero
BvqF
Parallel vectors• If v and B are parallel, the force on a
charged particle is zero• Keep in mind, the right hand rule is for a
positive (conventional) charge carrier• Since the force goes to zero when goes to
zero it’s said v x B equals vBsin • Rearranging to solve for B the result is:
sinvq
FB
o
Magnetic force does no work• In this case the magnetic force simply
changes the direction of the particle• It does not change the particle energy• This means the speed remains constant• Does a changing direction with constant
speed sound familiar?
