The Lorentz Force
CLASSICAL CONCEPT REVIEW 14 The Lorentz Force We can find empirically that a particle with mass m and electric charge q in an elec- tric field E experiences a force FE given by FE = q E LF-1 It is apparent from Equation LF-1 that, if q is a positive charge (e.g., a proton), FE is parallel to, that is, in the direction of E and if q is a negative charge (e.g., an electron), FE is antiparallel to, that is, opposite to the direction of E (see Figure LF-1). A posi- tive charge moving parallel to E or a negative charge moving antiparallel to E is, in the absence of other forces of significance, accelerated according to Newton’s second law: q F q E m a a E LF-2 E = = 1 = m Equation LF-2 is, of course, not relativistically correct.

Quantum Mechanics Electromotive Force
Quantum Mechanics_Electromotive force . Electromotive force, also called emf[1] (denoted and measured in volts), is the voltage developed by any source of electrical energy such as a batteryor dynamo.[2] The word "force" in this case is not used to mean mechanical force, measured in newtons, but a potential, or energy per unit of charge, measured involts. In electromagnetic induction, emf can be defined around a closed loop as the electromagnetic workthat would be transferred to a unit of charge if it travels once around that loop.[3] (While the charge travels around the loop, it can simultaneously lose the energy via resistance into thermal energy.) For a time-varying magnetic flux impinging a loop, theElectric potential scalar field is not defined due to circulating electric vector field, but nevertheless an emf does work that can be measured as a virtual electric potential around that loop.[4] In a two-terminal device (such as an electrochemical cell or electromagnetic generator), the emf can be measured as the open-circuit potential difference across the two terminals. The potential difference thus created drives current flow if an external circuit is attached to the source of emf. When current flows, however, the potential difference across the terminals is no longer equal to the emf, but will be smaller because of the voltage drop within the device due to its internal resistance. Devices that can provide emf includeelectrochemical cells, thermoelectric devices, solar cells and photodiodes, electrical generators,transformers, and even Van de Graaff generators.[4][5] In nature, emf is generated whenever magnetic field fluctuations occur through a surface. -
Measuring Electricity Voltage Current Voltage Current
Measuring Electricity Electricity makes our lives easier, but it can seem like a mysterious force. Measuring electricity is confusing because we cannot see it. We are familiar with terms such as watt, volt, and amp, but we do not have a clear understanding of these terms. We buy a 60-watt lightbulb, a tool that needs 120 volts, or a vacuum cleaner that uses 8.8 amps, and dont think about what those units mean. Using the flow of water as an analogy can make Voltage electricity easier to understand. The flow of electrons in a circuit is similar to water flowing through a hose. If you could look into a hose at a given point, you would see a certain amount of water passing that point each second. The amount of water depends on how much pressure is being applied how hard the water is being pushed. It also depends on the diameter of the hose. The harder the pressure and the larger the diameter of the hose, the more water passes each second. The flow of electrons through a wire depends on the electrical pressure pushing the electrons and on the Current cross-sectional area of the wire. The flow of electrons can be compared to the flow of Voltage water. The water current is the number of molecules flowing past a fixed point; electrical current is the The pressure that pushes electrons in a circuit is number of electrons flowing past a fixed point. called voltage. Using the water analogy, if a tank of Electrical current (I) is defined as electrons flowing water were suspended one meter above the ground between two points having a difference in voltage. -
Calculating Electric Power
Calculating electric power We've seen the formula for determining the power in an electric circuit: by multiplying the voltage in "volts" by the current in "amps" we arrive at an answer in "watts." Let's apply this to a circuit example: In the above circuit, we know we have a battery voltage of 18 volts and a lamp resistance of 3 Ω. Using Ohm's Law to determine current, we get: Now that we know the current, we can take that value and multiply it by the voltage to determine power: Answer: the lamp is dissipating (releasing) 108 watts of power, most likely in the form of both light and heat. Let's try taking that same circuit and increasing the battery voltage to see what happens. Intuition should tell us that the circuit current will increase as the voltage increases and the lamp resistance stays the same. Likewise, the power will increase as well: Now, the battery voltage is 36 volts instead of 18 volts. The lamp is still providing 3 Ω of electrical resistance to the flow of electrons. The current is now: This stands to reason: if I = E/R, and we double E while R stays the same, the current should double. Indeed, it has: we now have 12 amps of current instead of 6. Now, what about power? Notice that the power has increased just as we might have suspected, but it increased quite a bit more than the current. Why is this? Because power is a function of voltage multiplied by current, and both voltage and current doubled from their previous values, the power will increase by a factor of 2 x 2, or 4. -
Electromotive Force
Voltage - Electromotive Force Electrical current flow is the movement of electrons through conductors. But why would the electrons want to move? Electrons move because they get pushed by some external force. There are several energy sources that can force electrons to move. Chemical: Battery Magnetic: Generator Light (Photons): Solar Cell Mechanical: Phonograph pickup, crystal microphone, antiknock sensor Heat: Thermocouple Voltage is the amount of push or pressure that is being applied to the electrons. It is analogous to water pressure. With higher water pressure, more water is forced through a pipe in a given time. With higher voltage, more electrons are pushed through a wire in a given time. If a hose is connected between two faucets with the same pressure, no water flows. For water to flow through the hose, it is necessary to have a difference in water pressure (measured in psi) between the two ends. In the same way, For electrical current to flow in a wire, it is necessary to have a difference in electrical potential (measured in volts) between the two ends of the wire. A battery is an energy source that provides an electrical difference of potential that is capable of forcing electrons through an electrical circuit. We can measure the potential between its two terminals with a voltmeter.

Background reading: Fowler §3.1 & 7.9.2, Lowrie §5.2 & 5.4 GEOPHYSICS (08/430/0012) MAGNETIC FORCES Magnetic forces are forces associated with the motion of electric charges, either as electric currents in conductors or, in the case of magnetic materials, as the orbital and spin motions of electrons in atoms. Although the concept of a magnetic pole is sometimes useful, it is diácult to relate precisely to observation; for example, all attempts to find a magnetic monopole have failed, and the model of permanent magnets as magnetic dipoles with north and south poles is not particularly accurate. Consequently moving charges are normally regarded as fundamental in magnetism. Basic observations 1. Permanent magnets A magnet attracts iron and steel, the attraction being most marked close to its ends. -
Permanent Magnet Design Guidelines
NOTE(2019): THIS ORGANIZATION (MMPA) IS OBSOLETE! MAGNET GUIDELINES Basic physics of magnet materials II. Design relationships, figures merit and optimizing techniques Ill. Measuring IV. Magnetizing Stabilizing and handling VI. Specifications, standards and communications VII. Bibliography INTRODUCTION This guide is a supplement to our MMPA Standard No. 0100. It relates the information in the Standard to permanent magnet circuit problems. The guide is a bridge between unit property data and a permanent magnet component having a specific size and geometry in order to establish a magnetic field in a given magnetic circuit environment. The MMPA 0100 defines magnetic, thermal, physical and mechanical properties. The properties given are descriptive in nature and not intended as a basis of acceptance or rejection. Magnetic measure- ments are difficult to make and less accurate than corresponding electrical mea- surements. A considerable amount of detailed information must be exchanged between producer and user if magnetic quantities are to be compared at two locations. MMPA member companies feel that this publication will be helpful in allowing both user and producer to arrive at a realistic and meaningful specifica- tion framework. Acknowledgment The Magnetic Materials Producers Association acknowledges the out- standing contribution of Parker to this and designers and manufacturers of products usingpermanent magnet materials.

Electric and Magnetic Fields the Facts
PRODUCED BY ENERGY NETWORKS ASSOCIATION - JANUARY 2012 electric and magnetic fields the facts Electricity plays a central role in the quality of life we now enjoy. In particular, many of the dramatic improvements in health and well-being that we benefit from today could not have happened without a reliable and affordable electricity supply. Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are present wherever electricity is used, in the home or from the equipment that makes up the UK electricity system. But could electricity be bad for our health? Do these fields cause cancer or any other disease? These are important and serious questions which have been investigated in depth during the past three decades. Over £300 million has been spent investigating this issue around the world. Research still continues to seek greater clarity; however, the balance of scientific evidence to date suggests that EMFs do not cause disease. This guide, produced by the UK electricity industry, summarises the background to the EMF issue, explains the research undertaken with regard to health and discusses the conclusion reached. Electric and Magnetic Fields Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are produced both naturally and as a result of human activity. The earth has both a magnetic field (produced by currents deep inside the molten core of the planet) and an electric field (produced by electrical activity in the atmosphere, such as thunderstorms). Wherever electricity is used there will also be electric and magnetic fields. Electric and magnetic fields This is inherent in the laws of physics - we can modify the fields to some are inherent in the laws of extent, but if we are going to use electricity, then EMFs are inevitable. -

In terms of the flow of ideas summarized in Fig. 1.0.1, we have completed the EQS column to the left. Starting from the top of the MQS column on the right, recall from Chap. 3 that the laws of primary interest are Amp`ere’s law (with the displacement current density neglected) and the magnetic flux continuity law (Table 3.6.1). � × H = J (1) � · µoH = 0 (2) These laws have associated with them continuity conditions at interfaces. If the in terface carries a surface current density K, then the continuity condition associated with (1) is (1.4.16) n × (Ha − Hb) = K (3) and the continuity condition associated with (2) is (1.7.6). a b n · (µoH − µoH ) = 0 (4) In the absence of magnetizable materials, these laws determine the magnetic field intensity H given its source, the current density J.
