Q & A

What is a magnetic field?

A magnetic field is the region around a magnet where magnetic forces can be detected. It is generated by magnets or electric currents, and it affects materials within its vicinity.

How does the magnetic field in a refrigerator door work?

The refrigerator door seals tightly because it contains a long magnet embedded in the rubber seal around the door. This magnet generates a magnetic field that helps the door close firmly and stay shut.

What are the two main ways a magnetic field can be generated?

A magnetic field can be generated in two ways: 1) By using a permanent magnet, where rubbing a magnet on a certain type of metal can magnetize it, and 2) By using an electric current, which creates a magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor (called magnetic induction).

What is Oersted’s experiment, and what did it demonstrate?

Oersted’s experiment, conducted by Hans Christian Oersted, demonstrated that an electric current flowing through a conductor produces a magnetic field around it. This discovery showed the connection between electricity and magnetism.

How does the right-hand rule help determine the direction of a magnetic field?

According to the right-hand rule, if you point your thumb in the direction of the electric current, your curled fingers will show the direction of the magnetic field around the wire.

In Oersted’s experiment, how can the magnetic field be described at points around a current-carrying wire?

Using the right-hand rule, the magnetic field circulates around the wire in a direction determined by the current flow. At specific points like S and T, the field can either move towards or away from the observer, indicated by dots (coming out of the page) or crosses (going into the page).

What is magnetic induction?

Magnetic induction refers to the generation of a magnetic field by a current-carrying conductor. It explains how electrical currents can create magnetic fields, as seen in solenoids, circular wires, and straight wires.

How is the magnetic field strength calculated for an infinitely long straight wire?

The magnetic field strength for an infinitely long straight wire is calculated using the formula B = (μ₀I) / (2πa), where B is the magnetic field, μ₀ is the permeability of free space, I is the current, and a is the distance from the wire.

What is the significance of the permeability of free space (μ₀) in calculating magnetic fields?

The permeability of free space (μ₀) is a constant that quantifies how much a magnetic field can penetrate a vacuum. Its value is approximately 4π x 10⁻⁷ Weber per Ampere-meter, and it is used in calculations to determine the strength of magnetic fields generated by currents.

How does the magnetic field differ between an infinitely long straight wire and a finite-length wire?

For a finite-length wire, the magnetic field strength is calculated using a similar formula but takes into account the angles at both ends of the wire. The formula includes cosines of the angles to reflect the geometry of the wire and the distance to the observation point.
