    able to
  • Define magnetic field.
  • Identify magnetic field sources.
  • Sketch the magnetic field lines.

Magnetic field
19.1 Magnetic field
  • is defined as a region surrounding a magnet
  • or a conductor carrying current where a
  • magnetic force is experienced.
  • Magnets always have two poles
  • a) North and south poles.
  • b) Like poles repel and unlike poles attract.

Magnetic field lines
  • A magnetic field can be represented by
  • magnetic field lines (straight lines or curves).
  • Arrows on the lines show the direction of the
  • field the arrows point away from north poles
  • and towards south poles.

4
19.1 Magnetic field
  • A uniform field is represented by parallel
  • lines. This means that the number of lines
  • passing perpendicularly through unit area
  • at all cross-sections in a magnetic field
  • are the same as shown below.

5
19.1 Magnetic field
  • A non-uniform field is represented by non-
  • parallel lines. The number of magnetic field
  • lines varies at different unit cross-sections
  • as shown below.

6
19.1 Magnetic field
  • Magnetic field lines do not intersect
  • one another.
  • The tangent to a curved field line at a
  • point indicates the direction of the
  • magnetic field at that point.

7
19.1 Magnetic field
  • The number of lines per unit cross section
  • area is an indication of the strength of
  • the field. The number of lines per unit
  • cross-sectional area is proportional to
  • the magnitude of the magnetic field.

  • Consider a charged particle moving in a uniform
    magnetic field with its velocity (v)
    perpendicularly to the magnetic field (B).
  • As the particle enters the region, it will
    experience a magnetic force (F) which the force
    is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle.
    Hence the direction of its velocity changes but
    the magnetic force remains perpendicular to the
    velocity.
  • This magnetic force causes the particle to move
    in a circle.

19.6 Torque on a coil.
A moving coil galvanometer
  • The galvanometer is the main component in analog
    meters for measuring current and voltage.
  • It consists of a magnet, a coil of wire, a
    spring, a pointer and a calibrated scale.

19.6 Torque on a coil.
A moving coil galvanometer
  • The coil of wire contains many turns and is
    wrapped around a soft iron cylinder.
  • The coil is pivoted in a radial magnetic field,
    so that no matter what position it turns, the
    plane of the coil is always parallel to the
    magnetic field.

80
19.6 Torque on a coil.
A moving coil galvanometer
  • The basic operation of the galvanometer uses the
    fact that a torque acts on a current loop in the
    presence of a magnetic field.
  • When there is a current in the coil, the coil
    rotates in response to the torque ( t NABI )
    applied by the magnet.
  • This causes the pointer ( attached to the coil)
    to move in relation to the scale.

81
19.6 Torque on a coil.
A moving coil galvanometer
  • The torque experienced by the coil is
    proportional to the current in it the larger the
    current, the greater the torque and the more the
    coil rotates before the spring tightens enough to
    stop the rotation.
  • Hence, the deflection of the pointer attached to
    the coil is proportional to the current.
  • The coil stops rotating when this torque is
    balanced by the restoring torque of the spring.

82
19.6 Torque on a coil.
  • The coil stops rotating when this torque is
    balanced by the restoring torque of the spring.
  • From this equation, the current I can be

    resultant force ( a 0).
  • The particle will continue to move in the same
    direction with the same velocity.
  • For this to happen, the electric force downward
    must balance the magnetic force upwards (refer
    diagram),

Velocity Selector
19.7 Motion of charged particle in magnetic
field and electric field
  • A velocity selector uses this property of crossed
    electric and magnetic fields to select a single
    velocity of particle only particles traveling at
    this velocity will be undeflected.

Exercise
1. A velocity selector is to be constructed to
select ions (positive) moving to the right at 6.0
kms-1 . The electric field is 300 Vm-1
upwards. What should be the magnitude and
direction of the magnetic field?

19.7 Motion of charged particle in magnetic
field and electric field
  • When the magnetic field only is applied, the
    particle moves in an arc of a circle of radius r
    under the action of the centrally-directed
    magnetic,

A mass spectrometer
  • A mass spectrometer is a device used for
    separating atoms or molecules according to their
    mass.
  • The atoms or molecules are ionized and then
    accelerated through an electric field, giving
    them a speed which depends on their mass (their
    kinetic energies are all the same).
  • Then they enter a region of uniform magnetic
    field, which bends them in a circular path.

A mass spectrometer
  • The radius of the path depends on the momentum of
    the particle if the kinetic energies are the
    same and the masses are different, the momentum
    will be different as well.
  • A detector can be placed to detect particles
    whose path has a particular radius, thereby
    selecting a particular mass.
