Electric and magnetic circuits, their characteristics - Coggle Diagram

- - - - When the wire is a loop, the magnetic field causes a force in one direction on one side of the loop, and in the opposite direction on the other side of the loop. This creates a torque, which causes the coil to spin.
    - - The Lorentz force is the force that a particle experiences due to electric and magnetic fields.
    - - Lenz’ law is analogous to Newton’s third law in mechanics, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
    - - Inductance is a property of a device that tells how effectively it induces an emf in another device (or on itself).
  - - - The quantity of magnetic field force, or “push.” Analogous to electric voltage
    - - The quantity of total field effect, or “substance” of the field.
    - - The amount of field force (mmf) distributed over the length of the electromagnet.
    - - The amount of magnetic field flux concentrated in a given area.
    - - The opposition to magnetic field flux through a given volume of space or material.
    - - The specific measure of a material’s acceptance of magnetic flux
- - - - This law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.
    - - Kirchhoff's Current Law follows the principle of conservation of energy. It states that the total sum of all current flowing into a node on a circuit is equal to the sum of the current flowing out of the node.
  - - - Current is the flow of electrical charge through an electronic circuit.measured in AMPS
    - - Voltage is the electrical force that causes current to flow in a circuit.measured in VOLTS
    - - Resistance is a measure of opposition to current flow. It is measured in Ohms.
