Highlights

Introduction to Magnetism
00:00:06

Opposite poles attract, while like poles repel. Magnetic fields are created by moving electric charges.

Magnetic Fields from Wires
00:01:03

Electric current flowing through a wire creates a circular magnetic field around the wire. The right-hand rule helps determine the field's direction.

Calculating Magnetic Field Strength
00:02:07

The strength of the magnetic field is calculated using the formula B = μ₀ * I / (2πR), where I is the current and R is the distance from the wire. Increased current increases field strength, while increased distance weakens it.

Example Problems: Magnetic Field Calculation
00:03:18

Demonstrates how to calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field around a current-carrying wire using the formula and the right-hand rule.

Magnetic Force on a Current-Carrying Wire
00:06:27

A magnetic field exerts a force on a current-carrying wire. The strength of the magnetic force is calculated using F = I * L * B * sin(θ).

Right Hand Rule and Direction of Force
00:07:59

Explains how to use the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a wire, emphasizing that the force is perpendicular to both the current and the magnetic field.

Example Problems: Magnetic Force Calculation
00:09:17

Presents example problems demonstrating how to calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field.

Force on a Single Moving Charge
00:13:59

Introduces the equation for the magnetic force on a single moving charge: F = qvBsin(θ), where q is the charge, v is the velocity, and B is the magnetic field.

Right Hand Rule for Moving Charges
00:15:32

Explains how to use the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a moving charge, noting that the force on an electron is in the opposite direction.

Example Problem: Force on a Proton
00:16:46

Demonstrates the calculation of the magnetic force acting on a proton moving in a magnetic field.

Circular Motion of a Charged Particle
00:17:56

A charged particle moving perpendicular to a magnetic field will move in a circle. Discusses the difference in direction between a proton and electron.

Radius of Curvature
00:19:12

The radius of the circular path can be calculated by equating the centripetal force (mv²/R) with the magnetic force (qvB).

Kinetic Energy in Electron Volts
00:21:30

Explains how to convert kinetic energy from joules to electron volts.

Force Between Parallel Wires
00:25:03

Parallel wires with currents in the same direction attract each other, while wires with opposite currents repel. This is due to the magnetic field created by one wire exerting a force on the other.

Calculating Force Between Parallel Wires
00:28:53

The force is given by F = (μ₀ * I₁ * I₂ * L) / (2πR), where I₁ and I₂ are the currents, L is the length of the wires, and R is the distance between them.

Ampere's Law
00:32:36

Ampere's Law related the integrated magnetic field around a closed loop to the current enclosed by that loop.

Solenoids
00:35:11

A solenoid is a coil of wire that creates a strong magnetic field inside the coil when current flows through it. Includes derivation of the equation B=μ₀nI, where n is the number of turns per unit length.

Solenoid Calculation Example
00:40:53

Example of calculating the magnetic field strength inside a solenoid.

Torque on a Current-Carrying Loop
00:42:24

Explains that a current-carrying loop in a magnetic field experiences a torque, causing it to rotate. The torque is calculated using τ = NIABsin(θ).

Maximum Torque
00:54:40

Maximum torque happens when the magnetic field is parallel to the surface of the coil.

Torque Calculation Examples
00:56:03

Two examples for the torque equation is presented and worked out.
