38 Origin of magnetic field A charge feels a force in an electric field Ē And a charge creates an electric field. A moving charge feels a force in a magnetic field A moving charge creates a magnetic field

39 Origin of magnetic field Biot-Savart Law Beo-savaar d B = µ 0 4 Id l r r 2 Gives magnetic field, d B, at point P from current element, Id l (Similar to Coulomb s law for electric field, dē, from charge element, dq ) µ 0 = N/A 2 permeability constant B = Z d B = µ 0 4 Z Id l ˆr r 2

40 Origin of magnetic field Electric field lines begin and end on charges. But the magnetic field does not begin and end on moving charges The magnetic field encircles the moving charge or current. Magnetic field lines do not begin or end. Direction from right-hand grip rule

41 Using the Biot-Savart Law A current loop Find B at point P on axis of a circular loop carrying current I. Direction of B given by right hand grip rule. Perpendicular field components cancel. Parallel add.

43 Using the Biot-Savart Law A current loop Z B = db x = Z db cos = µ 0I 4 Z loop dl x 2 + a 2 a p x2 + a 2 B = µ 0 Ia 4 (x 2 + a 2 ) 3/2 Z loop distance, x, to P is same for everywhere on loop (move outside integral) B = µ 0 Ia 2 2(x 2 + a 2 ) 3/2 dl loop circumference: 2 a

44 Using the Biot-Savart Law Field of a straight wire Find B at point P from an infinitely long straight wire carrying current I. Direction of B given by right hand grip rule.

45 Using the Biot-Savart Law Field of a straight wire Find B at point P from an infinitely long straight wire carrying current I. Direction of B given by right hand grip rule. B out of page d B = µ 0 4 Id l r r 2 = µ 0I 4 dl sin r 2 = µ 0I 4 ydl (x 2 + y 2 ) 3/2 on axis: dl = dx

46 Using the Biot-Savart Law Field of a straight wire Find B at point P from an infinitely long straight wire carrying current I. Direction of B given by right hand grip rule.

47 Using the Biot-Savart Law Since magnetic fields produce a force on current-carrying wires: F = I l B and current-carrying wires produce a magnetic field... Current-carrying wires exert a force on each other. d Field from wire 1 at wire 2: B 1 = µ 0I 1 2 d This field is perpendicular to wire 2: F 2 = I 2 l B 1 = µ 0I 1 I 2 l 2 d magnetic force between 2 wires

48 Using the Biot-Savart Law F = µ 0I 1 I 2 l 2 d Force on each wire Parallel currents attract. If one current is reversed, the sign will change since: I = naqv d F = µ 0I 1 ( I 2 )l 2 d = µ 0I 1 I 2 l 2 d Anti-parallel currents repel

50 Magnetic dipoles Field from a loop: B = µ 0 Ia 2 2(x 2 + a 2 ) 3/2 For x >> a: B ' µ 0Ia 2 2x 3 = 2µ 0IA 4 x 3 A = loop area Compare with on-axis electric dipole: Ē = 2kp x 3 î magnetic dipole moment: µ = IA B = µ 0 2 µ x 3 The current loop is a magnetic dipole.

51 Magnetic dipoles The magnetic dipole moment is a vector: µ = IĀ Direction given by right hand grip rule. Current loops normally have many turns: µ = NIĀ magnetic dipole moment for N-turn loop True for any shape closed loop Any current loop is an magnetic dipole

52 Magnetic dipoles Far from the dipole, electric dipoles and magnetic dipoles look the same. Near the dipole, they look different. Electric dipoles can be split into positive and negative charges: But magnetic charges or monopoles has never been found. Electric field lines start and stop on charges. Magnetic field lines do not begin or end, but circle moving charge.

53 Magnetic dipoles Because magnetic field lines do not begin or end the magnetic flux is always zero! I Never for magnetic fields! X X B dā =0 Gauss s law for magnetism X If monopoles are discovered... Gauss s law will break! X

54 Magnetic dipoles Quiz Which field lines could be a magnetic field? (A) a I B dā =0 (B) b Net field lines through a closed surface = 0

55 Torque on a current loop Like the electric dipole, the magnetic dipole feels a torque (turning force) in a magnetic field. Opposite sides of loop have current in opposite directions In uniform field, net force = 0 I I But component perpendicular to B creates a torque F = I l B = IaB For each perpendicular side a I I side = rf sin = 1 2 bf sin = 1 2 biab sin b net =2 side = IabB sin = IAB sin = µb sin = µ B loop area

56 Torque on a current loop The magnetic dipole turns to align with magnetic field. If the current is reversed, the dipole will keep turning. In an DC electric motor, the current loop spins between magnetic poles Just before the dipole aligns with the field, the current direction is changed. Loop keeps spinning in same direction.
