Magnetic field, definition |
B = F_b / |q| v
v = velocity of particle |
|
Magnetic force |
F_b = B |q| v |
|
EM Equilibrium |
--> forces are balanced
eE = evB
e = elementary charge |
|
Potential |
V = v B d |
|
Cancelling forces (magnetic and electric) |
B and E must be parallel for their forces to cancel |
|
V_d (drift velocity) |
V_d = i / n e A
for an electron |
|
When v is perpindicular to the magnetic field, |
The particle will travel in a circular path. |q|vB becomes mv²/r
If there is a || component of v, it moves in a helical path about B |
|

|
The magnetic force is maximized when |
velocity of charge is perpendicular to B field |
|
The Lorentz force statement states: |
F = qE + q(v × B)
A particle experiences a force with the magnitude equal to the vector addition of the electric force and the magnetic force, when both are present. |

|
What are the two ways to induce a magnetic field? |
1. Using moving electrically charged particles ( electro magnet )
2. Elementary particles, for they have intrinsic magnetic fields. Different arrangement of electrons (diff. materials) yield different magnetic fields. |
|
Describe the Hall effect, empirically and in words. |
Electron in uniform electric and magnetic fields does not experience a deflection in its motion. E field must be perpendicular to B field.
