... A magnetic field exerts a torque on each of the current carrying single loops of wire shown in Figure. The loops lie in the xy plane, each carrying the same magnitude current, and the uniform magnetic field points in the positive x direction. Rank the loops by the magnitude of the torque exerted on ...

... Induction and energy transfers By Lenz's rule, the induced current always opposes the external agent that produced the induced current. Thus the external agent must always do work on the loop-magnetic field system. This work appears as thermal energy that gets dissipated on the resistance R of the ...

History of electromagnetic theory
For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
