  2. Magnetic flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_flux

    If the magnetic field is constant, the magnetic flux passing through a surface of vector area S is = = ⁡, where B is the magnitude of the magnetic field (the magnetic flux density) having the unit of Wb/m 2 , S is the area of the surface, and θ is the angle between the magnetic field lines and the normal (perpendicular) to S.

  3. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    The members of the algebra may be decomposed by grade (as in the formalism of differential forms) and the (geometric) product of a vector with a k-vector decomposes into a (k − 1)-vector and a (k + 1)-vector. The (k − 1)-vector component can be identified with the inner product and the (k + 1)-vector component with the outer product. It is ...

    1 maxwell = 1 gauss × 2. That is, one maxwell is the total flux across a surface of one square centimetre perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength one gauss. The weber is the related SI unit of magnetic flux, which was defined in 1946. [9] 1 maxwell ≘ 10 −4 tesla × (10 −2 metre) 2 = 10 −8 weber

  5. Weber (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weber_(unit)

    In physics, the weber (/ ˈ v eɪ b-, ˈ w ɛ b. ər / VAY-, WEH-bər; [1] [2] symbol: Wb) is the unit of magnetic flux in the International System of Units (SI). The unit is derived (through Faraday's law of induction) from the relationship 1 Wb = 1 V⋅s (volt-second). A magnetic flux density of 1 Wb/m 2 (one weber per square metre) is one tesla.

  6. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    The net magnetic flux Φ B is the surface integral of the magnetic field B passing through a fixed surface, Σ: =, The net electric flux Φ E is the surface integral of the electric field E passing through Σ : Φ E = ∬ Σ E ⋅ d S , {\displaystyle \Phi _{E}=\iint _{\Sigma }\mathbf {E} \cdot \mathrm {d} \mathbf {S} ,}

  7. 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 ...

  8. Biot–Savart law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biot–Savart_law

    The Biot–Savart law [4]: Sec 5-2-1 is used for computing the resultant magnetic flux density B at position r in 3D-space generated by a filamentary current I (for example due to a wire). A steady (or stationary) current is a continual flow of charges which does not change with time and the charge neither accumulates nor depletes at any point.

  9. 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. The charge q 2 can ...
