MAGNETIC FIELD. MAGNETISM IN NATURE
1. The magnitude of the magnetic force F on a charge q moving at a speed v in a magnetic field of
strength B is given by F = qvBsin0, where 0 is the angle between the directions of v and B. This force is
often called the Lorentz force. In fact, this is how we define the magnetic field strength B in terms of the
force on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field. The SI unit for magnetic field strength B is called the
tesla (T).
2. Force on a moving charge in a magnetic field. Magnetic force can cause a charged particle to move
in a circular or spiral path. In this case, the magnetic force supplies the centripetal force.

moving at a speed v perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength B (0 = 1) .
3. The Hall Effect

conductor. Figure 1 shows what happens to charges moving

through a conductor in a magnetic field. The field is
perpendicular to the electron drift velocity and to the width
(a) i O
of the conductor. Note that conventional current is to the
right in both parts of the figure. In part (a), electrons carry
the current and move to the left. In part (b), positive charges
carry the current and move to the right. Moving electrons
feel a magnetic force toward one side of the conductor,
leaving a net positive charge on the other side. This
separation of charge creates a voltage ɛ , known as the Hall
emf, across the conductor. The creation of a voltage across a current-carrying conductor by a magnetic field

is known as the Hall effect: qE = qvB, or E = vB.
Note that the electric field E is uniform across the conductor because the magnetic field B is uniform, as is
the conductor. For a uniform electric field, the relationship between electric field and voltage is E = ɛ/l ,
where l is the width of the conductor and ɛ is the Hall EMF. Entering this into the last expression gives
ɛ = Blv
where ɛ is the Hall effect voltage across a conductor of width I through which charges move at a speed v.
The Hall effect can be used to measure fluid flow in any fluid having free charges, such as blood.
4. Magnetic force on a current-carrying conductor F = IlBsin0, here F is magnetic force on a length
1 of wire carrying a current I in a uniform magnetic field B.
5. The torque t on a current-carrying loop of any shape in a uniform magnetic field is t = NIABsin0,
where N is the number of turns, I is the current, A is the area of the loop, B is the magnetic field strength, and
O is the angle between the perpendicular to the loop and the magnetic field.
6. The magnetic field strength (magnitude) produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is
found by experiment to be B = 20, where I is the current, r is the shortest distance to the wire, and the
constant uo = 4x×10¯7 T · m/A is the permeability of free space.
7. Magnetic field produced by a current-carrying circular loop. There is a simple formula for the
magnetic field strength at the center of a circular loop. It is B =, where R is the radius of the loop. One
