Biot Savart’s Law

Magnitude of the magnetic field due to a small current carrying element is

  • directly proportional the current I

  • directly proportional the length element

  • inversely proportional to square of the distance

|dB| = μ₀Idlsinθ/4πr²

μ₀/4π = 10⁻⁷ Tm/A

Magnetic Field due to a Circular loop

At axial line:

μ₀IR²/2(R²+x²)³/²

At the centre of the loop with N turns:

B = N(μ₀I/2R)

4

Magnetic Field due to a Circular Arc

B = (μ₀I/4πR) x θ

5
New cards

Ampere’s Circuital Law

Ampere’s law states that the integral of magnetic field over a loop is equal to μ₀ times the total current passing through the surface

∮ B . dl = μ₀I

It is used when:

  • B is tangential

  • B ≠0

  • B is normal to the closed loops

Magnetic Field due to an Infinitely Long thin Current Carrying Wire

B = μ₀I/2πr

New cards

Magnetic Field due to an Infinitely Long Thick Current Carrying Wire

B (in) = (μ₀I/2πR²) x r

B (surface) = μ₀I/2πR

B (outside) = μ₀I/2πr

R => Radius of circle

r => Distance between centre and point P

Magnetic Force

F = q (v × B) = Bqvsinθ n^

[B] = [F/qv]

S.I. unit: Tesla (T)

  • Tesla is a rather large unit

  • Smaller unit: Gauss

1 gauss = 10^-4 T

It is zero if:

  • Charge moves parallel or anti-parallel

  • Charge is at rest

  • Particle is neutral

Motion of a Charge in Magnetic Field

r = mvsinθ/Bq

T = 2πm/Bq

f = Bq/2πm (1/T)

ω = Bq/m

pitch, x = v (parallel) x T = Vcosθ x 2πm/Bq

Path of Charge:

  • Straight Line (θ = 0°)

  • Circular Path (θ = 90°)

  • Helical Path (θ ≠ 0°/90°/180°)

Magnetic Force on a Current Carrying Conductor

F = I(current) (l(length vector) x B)

F = BIlsinθ (remember as billsinθ)

l => length vector, the same direction as the current

B => External magnetic field, not the field produced by the rod

F/l = μ₀I₁I₂/2πd

Current in the same direction => Attract

Current in different directions => Repel

Galvanometer to Ammeter

By adding a shunt resistance in parallel

Rₛ = (Ig/I-Ig) Rg

Rₛ => Required shunt resistance

I => Total current to be measured

Ig => Current flowing through galvanometer

I-Ig => Remaining current flowing through resistor

Total resistance of ammeter:

Rₐ = Rg x Rₛ/Rg+Rₛ (since they are parallel)

Galvanometer to Voltmeter

By adding a resistance in series

V = Ig(R+Rg)

R = V/Ig - Rg

R => Unknown resistance to be measures

Rg => Resistance of galvanometer

Rᵥ = R + Rg
