A Partial History of Magnetism
13th century BC
Chinese used a compass
Uses a magnetic needle
Probably an invention of Arabic or Indian origin
800 BC
Greeks
Discovered magnetite (Fe3O4) attracts iron
A Partial History of Magnetism
Hans Christian Oersted
Danish Physicist
Discovered the relationship between electricity and magnetism in 1819
during a lecture demonstration!
An electric current in a wire deflected a nearby compass needle
Demo Ec4:
Oersted’s Experiment
When a current flows through the conductor the compass needle deflects due to the magnetic field set up by the current.
Reversing the direction of the current reverses the direction of the magnetic field.
Oersted in 1819 revolutionised the study of electricity & magnetism, sparking scientists to investigate the subject. He himself couldn’t set up experiments and had to rely on assistants. He got left behind!

Magnetic Poles
Every magnet, regardless of its shape, has two poles
Called north and south poles
Poles exert forces on one another
Similar to the way electric charges exert forces on each other
Like poles repel
N-N or S-S Unlike poles attract
N-S
Magnetic Poles, cont.
The poles received their names due to the way
a magnet behaves in the Earth’s magnetic field
If a bar magnet is suspended so that it can
move freely, it will rotate
Magnetic north pole points toward the Earth’s north
geographic pole
i.e. Earth’s north geographic pole is a magnetic
south pole
Similarly, the Earth’s south geographic pole is a
magnetic north pole
Magnetic Poles, final
The force between two poles varies as
the inverse square of the distance
between them
A single magnetic pole has never been
isolated
i.e. magnetic poles always found in pairs
There is some theoretical basis for the
existence of monopoles – single poles
Magnetic Fields

pole of a compass needle points

Magnetic Fields and Forces
The magnetic field, B, at some point in
space can be defined in terms of the
magnetic force, FB
Note: B is sometimes known as the
Magnetic Induction
A magnetic force will be exerted on a
charged particle moving in a magnetic
field
FB on a Charge Moving
in a Magnetic Field
Magnitude proportional to charge and speed of the particle
Direction depends on the velocity of the particle and the direction of the magnetic field It is perpendicular to both
FB = q v x B FB is the magnetic force
q is the charge
v is the velocity of the moving charge
B is the magnetic field
Direction
FB perpendicular to plane formed by v & B
Oppositely directed forces are exerted on
charges of different signs
cause the particles to move in opposite directions
Direction given by
Right-Hand Rule
Fingers point in the
direction of v
(for positive charge;
opposite direction if
negative)
Curl fingers in the
direction of B
Then thumb points in the
direction of v x B; i.e. the
direction of FB
The Magnitude of F
The magnitude of the magnetic force on
a charged particle is FB = |q| vB sin
is the angle between v and B
FB is zero when v and B are parallel or
antiparallel
= 0° or 180°
FB is a maximum when v and B are
perpendicular
= 90°
Example
Proton moves at v = 8x106 m/s in x-direction.
Enters region where B = 2.5 T directed at 60°
to x-axis in xy-plane. What is the initial force
on the proton?
Right Hand rule puts F in the z-direction.

Differences Between Electric
and Magnetic Fields
Direction of force
Electric force acts along direction of electric field
Magnetic force acts perpendicular to magnetic
field
Motion
Electric force acts on a charged particle
regardless of whether the particle is moving
Magnetic force acts on a charged particle only
when the particle is in motion
Differences Between Electric
and Magnetic Fields
Work
Electric force does work in displacing a
charged particle
Magnetic force associated with a steady
magnetic field does no work when a
particle is displaced
Force is perpendicular to the
displacement, so F.ds=0
Work in Magnetic Fields
The kinetic energy of a charged particle
moving through a magnetic field cannot
be altered by the magnetic field alone
The field can only alter the direction of
the particle, not its speed
Units of Magnetic Field
The SI unit of magnetic field is the tesla (T)
Since FB = |q| vB sin
The cgs unit is a gauss (G)
1 T = 104 G
1 T 1N
C m/s 1

The north-pole end of a bar magnet is held near a positively
charged piece of plastic. The plastic is
(a) attracted
(b) repelled
(c) unaffected by the magnet
Answer: (c). The magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field
on a charge is proportional to the charge’s velocity relative
to the field. If the charge is stationary, as in this situation,
there is no magnetic force.

Apply the right hand rule
Force on a Wire, equation
Magnetic force is exerted on each moving charge in the wire
F = q vd x B
Total force is the product of force on one charge times the number of charges
F = (q vd x B)nAL n is the number of charges
per unit volume
Force on a Wire, (4)
In terms of the current, this becomes F = I L x B
L is a vector that points in the direction of the current (i.e. of vD) Magnitude is the length L of the segment
I is the current = nqAvD

Suppose that B is uniform.
Then

Force on a Wire, Case 2
An arbitrary shaped closed
loop carrying current I in a

The four wires shown below all carry the same current from point A to
point B through the same magnetic field. In all four parts of the figure, the
points A and B are 10 cm apart. Which of the following choices ranks the
wires according to the magnitude
of the magnetic force exerted on
them, from greatest to least?
(a) a, b, c
(b) a, c, b
(c) a, c, d
(d) a, d, c
(d) b, c, d
(e) c, b, d
Answer: (c). The order is (a), (b) = (c), (d). The magnitude
of the force depends on the value of sin θ. The maximum
force occurs when the wire is perpendicular to the field (a),
and there is zero force when the wire is parallel (d). Choices
(b) and (c) represent the same force because a straight wire
between A and B will have the same force on it as the curved
wire for a uniform magnetic field.

Charged Particle in a
Magnetic Field
Consider a particle moving
in an external magnetic
field with its velocity

The force is always
directed toward the centre
of the circular path

Charged Particles Moving in
Electric and Magnetic Fields
In many applications, charged particles
will move in the presence of both
magnetic and electric fields
In that case, the total force is the sum of
the forces due to the individual fields
In general: F = qE + qv x B
Hall Effect (not examinable)
When a current carrying conductor is placed
in a magnetic field, a potential difference is
generated in a direction perpendicular to both
the current and the magnetic field
This phenomena is known as the Hall effect
It arises from the deflection of charge carriers
to one side of the conductor as a result of the
magnetic forces they experience
Hall Effect
When the charge carriers are negative, the upper edge of the conductor becomes negatively charged
When the charge carriers are positive, the upper edge becomes positively charged
Sign of Hall voltage, VH, gives the sign of the charges
Hall Voltage
In equilibrium qEH = qvdB
VH = EHd = vd B d
d is the width of the conductor
vd is the drift velocity So can be found if B and d are known and VH measured
Where RH = 1 / nq is called the Hall coefficient and y is the
thickness of the conductor, with area A = yd
A properly calibrated conductor can be used to measure the magnitude of an unknown magnetic field

A charged particle is moving perpendicular to a magnetic
field in a circle with a radius r. An identical particle enters
the field, with v perpendicular to B, but with a higher speed
v than the first particle. Compared to the radius of the circle
for the first particle, the radius of the circle for the second
particle is
(a) smaller
(b) larger
(c) equal in size
Answer: (b). The magnetic force on the particle increases in
proportion to v, but the centripetal acceleration increases
according to the square of v. The result is a larger radius, as
we can see from r = mv/qB.

Rank the magnitudes of the torques acting on the rectangular
loops shown in the figure below, from highest to lowest. (All the
loops are identical and carry the same current.)
(a) a, b, c (b) b, c, a (c) c, b, a
(d) a, c, b. (e) All loops experience zero torque.

carry the same current, the magnitude of μ is the same for
all. For part (c) in the image, μ points upward and is
perpendicular to the magnetic field and τ = μB, the
maximum torque possible. For the loop in (a), μ points along
the direction of B and the torque is zero. For (b), the torque
is intermediate between zero and the maximum value.
