Some Expectations
• Participate! Please don’t be scared, I would like to hear everyone’s voice
• Once again, if you don’t understand me, just raise your hand
• There will be some short assignments given• All my slides will be uploaded to Professor
Dodero’s site: http://my.liceti.it/prof/dodero/
Some Pronounciations
C1 = “C sub one” or “C one”
Some Pronounciations
• a + b = “a plus b”• a – b = “a minus b”• a x b = “a times b”• a/b = “a over b”• ab = “a to the b”• a2 = “a to the second/ a squared”• a3, a4 = “a to the third, a to the fourth, etc”• 0.05 = “zero point zero five”• 2x10-5 = “two times ten to the negative fifth”
Introduction to Magnetic FieldsWe know that charged objects produce electric fieldsWhat are sources of magnetic fields?
- permanent magnets- current
Introduction to Magnetic Fields: Permanent Magnets
A permanent magnet is made from magnetized material that consistently produces its own magnetic field– this is due to something known as ferromagnetism
Ferromagnetic materials can either form permanent magnets, or are attracted to magnets
Introduction to Magnetic Fields: Permanent Magnets
• A bar magnet is a permanent magnet, and consists of two poles, north and south
• The magnetic field lines leave from the north pole and enter the south pole
Introduction to Magnetic Fields: Permanent Magnets
• Opposite poles of a magnet attract each other, and like poles repel
Introduction to Magnetic Fields: Permanent Magnets
• when you break a magnet in half, you end up with two smaller magnets, both with north and south poles
• there are no magnetic monopoles
Introduction to Magnetic Fields: Permanent Magnets
• Magnetic Field of a Bar Magnet
How do we define a magnetic field?
• In electrostatics,
• Since magnetic monopoles don’t exist, however, this changes things a bit

How do we define a magnetic field?
• For a single charge q with velocity moving in a magnetic field there is a magnetic force on the charge:

How do we define a magnetic field?
• the SI unit for is the tesla
Concept Question
If a moving charge traveling in the positive direction enters a magnetic field pointing in the positive direction, in which direction will the moving charge be deflected?a. - b. + c. - d. +
Concept Question Solution
Answer: b is correct. =
Magnetic force on a current-carrying wire

Magnetic force on a current-carrying wire
is 0 when I=0, so the wire does not bend.
I is no longer 0, so now there is an , and the wire bends
The direction of current is reversed from B, so the wire bends in the opposite direction

Charged particle in a magnetic field
What happens to the path of a moving charged particle as it enters a magnetic field?
at all times, so the charge follows a circular path ( acts like centripetal force)
A charged particle enters a magnetic field as shown below. What will the resulting path of the particle be?
a. circleb. straight linec. helix
Concept Question
𝑣
𝐵
Charged particle in a magnetic field
If the particle has a component of velocity parallel to the magnetic field, it will follow a helical path
There is a component of parallel to at all times, so the charge still moves in a circle,it also moves in a path along the direction of

Lorentz Force
• We know a charged particle in an electric field feels an electric force:
• We also know a moving charged particle in a magnetic field feels a magnetic force:
• The total force on a moving charged particle in an electric field and a magnetic field feels is the sum of these forces:

An electron with charge –e and mass m is emitted from plate C and accelerated towards slit A. There is a potential difference between A and C, where .
a. What is the speed of the electron after it reaches A? (Use conservation of energy, electrical potential energy )
b. As the electron travels through the region after slit A, it passes through a downwards electric field , and a magnetic field into the page. At what velocity will the electron move in a straight line through this region?
c. Using your answers from part a and b, what is the charge to mass ratio of this electron (what is )?
