Study Notes
Basic Properties of Magnets
- A magnet attracts small pieces of iron, cobalt, and nickel.
- When freely suspended, a magnet aligns itself in the geographical north-south direction.
- Like poles repel while unlike poles attract.
- Magnetic poles always exist as pairs.
- Magnetic induction occurs when a magnet induces magnetism in a nearby magnetic substance.
Important Definitions in Magnetism
- Magnetic Field: The surrounding space where a magnet's influence is felt.
- Uniform Magnetic Field: A magnetic field with the same magnitude and direction throughout a region.
- Magnetic Poles: Regions of concentrated magnetic strength where attraction is strongest.
- Magnetic Axis: The line connecting the two poles of a magnet.
- Magnetic Equator: The line perpendicular to the magnetic axis and passing through the center of the magnet.
- Magnetic Length: The distance between the two poles, slightly less than the geometrical length.
Coulomb's Law of Magnetic Force
- States that the attraction or repulsion between two magnetic poles is proportional to the product of their pole strengths and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
- Defined mathematically, with force ( F ) corresponding to pole strengths ( p_1 ) and ( p_2 ) at a distance ( r ).
Magnetic Dipole
- An arrangement of two equal and opposite poles separated by a small distance.
- The magnetic field at equatorial points in relation to a dipole is opposite to the dipole moment direction.
Torque on a Magnetic Dipole
- Torque is produced when a magnetic dipole is in a uniform magnetic field at an angle ( θ ).
- The torque ( τ = \text{Force} \times \text{perpendicular distance} ).
- At ( θ = 0°), torque is minimized; at ( θ = 90°), torque is maximized.
Potential Energy of a Magnetic Dipole
- Potential energy is stored when a dipole is rotated against the torque trying to align it with the magnetic field.
- Potential energy is minimum when ( θ = 0°) and maximum when ( θ = 180°).
Current Loop as a Magnetic Dipole
- A circular loop of current behaves as a magnetic dipole with a defined magnetic moment.
- Magnetic dipole moment of a current loop = ( NI \times A ) (N = number of turns, I = current, A = area).
Magnetic Dipole Moment of a Revolving Electron
- Electrons produce a magnetic dipole moment due to their circular motion around a nucleus, akin to a current loop.
- The ratio of magnetic moment to angular momentum yields the gyro-magnetic ratio.
Bohr Magneton
- Defined as the magnetic moment associated with an electron due to its orbital motion in the first orbit of a hydrogen atom.
Gauss's Law in Magnetism
- States that the surface integral of a magnetic field over a closed surface is zero, indicating no isolated magnetic poles exist.
Magnetizing Field
- The external magnetic field that induces magnetism in materials.
- The magnetic field within a toroidal solenoid is given by a specific formula based on the number of turns per unit length.
Magnetic Induction and Magnetization
- Occurs when a magnetic material is placed in an external magnetizing field, causing atomic magnetic moments to align.
- The magnetic moment per unit volume is known as intensity of magnetization.
Intensity of Magnetization
- Defined as the magnetic moment developed per unit volume in a magnetizing field.
- The intensity can also be expressed in terms of pole strength per unit area.
