  2. Lenz's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenz's_law

    The net work on q 1 thereby generates a magnetic field whose strength (in units of magnetic flux density (1 tesla = 1 volt-second per square meter)) is proportional to the speed increase of q 1. This magnetic field can interact with a neighboring charge q 2 , passing on this momentum to it, and in return, q 1 loses momentum.

  3. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    The magnetic field generated by a steady current I (a constant flow of electric charges, in which charge neither accumulates nor is depleted at any point) [note 8] is described by the Biot–Savart law: [21]: 224 = ^, where the integral sums over the wire length where vector dâ„“ is the vector line element with direction in the same sense as ...

  4. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    the magnetic field B changes (e.g. an alternating magnetic field, or moving a wire loop towards a bar magnet where the B field is stronger), the wire loop is deformed and the surface Σ changes, the orientation of the surface dA changes (e.g. spinning a wire loop into a fixed magnetic field), any combination of the above

  5. Eddy current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current

    The magnetic field (B, green) is directed down through the plate. The Lorentz force of the magnetic field on the electrons in the metal induces a sideways current under the magnet. The magnetic field, acting on the sideways moving electrons, creates a Lorentz force opposite to the velocity of the sheet, which acts as a drag force on the sheet.

  6. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    An electromagnet attracts paper clips when current is applied, creating a magnetic field. The electromagnet loses them when current and magnetic field are removed. An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. [17] The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off.

  7. Electromagnetic forming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_forming

    A pinched aluminium can, produced from a pulsed magnetic field created by rapidly discharging 2 kilojoules from a high-voltage capacitor bank into a 3-turn coil of heavy gauge wire. Electromagnetic forming ( EM forming or magneforming ) is a type of high-velocity, cold forming process for electrically conductive metals, most commonly copper and ...

  8. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    The Maxwell–Faraday equation (listed as one of Maxwell's equations) describes the fact that a spatially varying (and also possibly time-varying, depending on how a magnetic field varies in time) electric field always accompanies a time-varying magnetic field, while Faraday's law states that emf (electromagnetic work done on a unit charge when ...

  9. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    The magnetization field or M-field can be defined according to the following equation: =. Where is the elementary magnetic moment and is the volume element; in other words, the M-field is the distribution of magnetic moments in the region or manifold concerned.
