The fundamental magnetic element is a dipole or combination of one positive and one negative magnetic monopole. The characteristics of the magnetic field are derived from the combined effects of non-existent monopoles.

Proton precession frequency (f) is directly proportional to the main magnetic field intensity F and magnetic dipole moment of the proton (M). L is the angular momentum of the proton and G is the gyromagnetic ratio which is a constant for all protons (G = M/L = 0.267513/ sec). Hence -
