Magnetic Field
It turns out the hardest thing to understand about magnetism is a simple magnet.
We will start by studying the force on a current caused by a magnet field. We'll
wait until next sections to figure out where the magnetic field comes from.
The Force Between Conductors
There are similarities between the electric force and the force between wires.
Could the force between wires just be the electric force? It is not because:
1) Like currents attract and opposite repel, exactly the reverse of the electric force.
2) The current carrying wires are electrically neutral. They exert no force on a
single charge.
It would seem that we must treat the force between current carrying wires as a new
force called the "magnetic force." It must be noted that, in fact, this force is
electrical in nature and Einstein's Theory of Relativity explains the connection
between electricity and magnetism.
We need to establish the force law (analogous to Coulomb's Rule or Newton's Law
of Universal Gravitation) for this "new" force of magnetism.
Newtons law requires that F12 = F21. You must guess that

and
and
and
Combining these facts we get
Where the constant of proportionality is
The definition of Magnetic Field
Recall the way we defined electric field. In that case instead of thinking q1 exerting
a force on q2 we thought of q1 creating a field and q2 feeling the force due to being
in this field.
This Implied
where F21 = q2E

We can do the same thing with magnetic field, defining it with the Alphabet B.
Where F21 = I2lB1
Where B1 = (uo/2) (I1/r)
To incorporate the vector nature of forces we need to pick a direction for the
magnetic field. Since F is up and l is in the horizontal plane along the wire, it is
most convenient to choose B into the paper. Now we can define the magnetic field
vector as,
Note that
It is convenient to define unit of B as
Another unit is
Currents are the source of the magnetic field. We will discuss these facts in detail
in the next topics. These sections will focus on the effect of an applied magnetic
field.

The magnetic Force on a Moving Charge
The force on a current carrying wire is
The current is composed of individual charges. We want to know the magneticforce on a single charge. Recall the definition of current density,
Using the expression for drift velocity
Inserting the free electron density
The force on one charge will be

Current Loops in Constant Magnetic Field
A uniform magnetic field points along the z-direction. An arbitrarily shaped
current loop is placed in the field.
Let's find the net force on the loop. The force, dF, on a small segment of the loop,
dl, is given by the definition of magnetic field
The total force on the loop is
An arbitrary length is given by
And the magnetic field
The cross product is
The total force on the loop is
The above relation is true for any shape of current loop in electric field.
But what is the torque on the loop. In books you may find only square loops but we
are considering a circular loop as shown below.

The loop will be in the x-y plane and B is in the x-z plane and angle from the z-
axis. This geometry means no loss of generality.
The definition of torque is
So the torque element about the center of the center of the loop on a small
segment caused by will be

and
This gives
If we make the following definition
Than the torque is
This equation is similar to the result for the torque on an electric dipole. By using
this analogy we can write the potential energy of a magnetic dipole in a magnetic
field as,

Magnetic Devices
Velocity Selector
Particles of mass m and charge q move at a speed u into a region with a vertical E-field and a horizontal B-field as shown. It turns out that there will be only one
velocity that will allow the particles to be undeflected by the fields. It can be found
by using the Second Law,
Apply the definition of E-field and the magnetic force on a moving charge,
For the undeflected particles,

Magnetic Field Due to Currents
Now that we know the effects of magnetic fields on currents we can discuss the
causes of magnetic fields. If currents feel the magnetic force, Newton's Third Law
requires they must exert it as well. The purpose of these sections is to learn to
calculate magnetic fields caused by currents. The Biot-Savart Rule is a recipe that
will always work. Amperes Law, while more fundamental, can be used to find
fields only in cases where the current distribution is highly symmetric.
The Bio-Savart Law
The electric force on a charge q1 is found by calculating the field due to all the
other charges. We start by finding the field due to the point charge dq2 i.e.
Next the force on q1 due to the charge dq2 is found by the expression
Then we integrate the contribution of forces due to all the other charges by
considering the charge distribution.
The same procedure will be followed to find the force on a current I1 due to
distribution of current I2. The magnetic force on the current I1in the magnetic field
dB2 caused by the current element I2 is

Comparing equivalent things in electric and magnetic force equations we get.
Using an analogy to find the field due to electric charge element dq is
This is called Biot-Savart Law.

It is convenient to know that the magnetic field due to long straight wire is

Amperes Law
Amperes Law states that the sum of the magnetic field along any closed path is
proportional to the current that passes through. Mathematically.
In order to understand the idea consider the circular path around a current carrying
wire that passes through the center of the path and is perpendicular to the plane of
the path
We know that the magnetic field due to this wire is
and is parallel to
So we have
Which is consistent with Amperes Law.
Like Gausses Law Amperes Law is also used to find Magnetic field due to
sufficiently symmetric charge distributions.
