Magnetic Field

Ampere's (circuital) Law

Basis of electromagnetism

Electromagnetic Force (Lorentz Force)

Basis of motor

A current-carrying wire in the presence of magnetic field has force induced on it

Faraday's Law

Basis of transformer

Second Newton's Law for Rotation

Circular magnetic field follows right-hand grip rule

Magnetic Field, H = i / (2πr) (Unit: A/m)

Magnetic field produces when current flow in a wire

A time changing magnetic field induces voltage in a coil of wire if it passes through the coil

Time varying flux causes an induced emf to occur

Some flux leaks into surrounding air

Uses Fleming's left-hand rule

F is perpendicular to the plane formed by v and B

F = I (l x B)

A moving wire in the presence of a magnetic field has a voltage induced in it

Basis of generator

Uses Fleming's right-hand rule

Net external torque = moment of inertia x angular acceleration

Changes mechanical energy to electrical energy

Changes electrical energy to mechanical energy
