Forces Between Current-Carrying Parallel Wires If each of two parallel wires carries a current, the magnetic fields will interact. If the currents are oriented in the same direction, they will attract each other; if oriented in opposite directions, they will repel each other (Fig 1). Fig 1. Magnetic fields in parallel wires (below) Fig. 2 The diagram represents a rectangular loop placed in a uniform magnetic field (above). The diagram shows that the orientation of the magnetic field between the two parallel wires is similar to the orientation of the magnetic field between the bar magnets. Because the bar magnets attract each other, we can infer that the wires will attract each other. The force on either wire is directly proportional to the currents in the two wires and the lengths of the wires, and is inversely proportional to the distance between the wires. This parallel-wire arrangement is used to define the ampere as a unit of current: Two parallel wires will each carry a current of I ampere if both wires are 1 meter in length and 1 meter apart, and a force of 2 x 10-7 newton (exactly) exists between them. Assessment Question 1 Which set of statements is true: i. If two parallel wires have currents that are oriented in the same direction, they will attract each other; ii. If two parallel wires have currents that are oriented in opposite directions, they will repel each other. iii. The orientation of the magnetic field between the two parallel wires is OPPOSITE to the orientation of the magnetic field between the bar magnets. iv. The force on either wire is directly proportional to the currents in the two wires and the lengths of the wires, and is inversely proportional to the distance between the wires. v. If bar magnets ATTRACT each other, we can infer that the wires will REPEL each other. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, v d) i , iii, v Torque and Electromagnetism The diagram (Fig. 2) represents a rectangular loop placed in a uniform magnetic field. The portions of the loop that are parallel to the magnetic field (A and C) will experience no force. If we apply right hand rule 3 to section B of the loop, we find that it experiences a force directly upward out of the page. Similarly, section D will experience a force directly downward into the page. The net result of these two forces is to rotate the loop. Forces that produce rotational motion are called torques. The motion produced by the rotation is the basis for the electric motor. The torque on the loop is proportional to the current in the loop. The loop will not rotate continuously, but will stop after a 900 rotation because the net torque on the loop will then be zero. Assessment Question 2 Which set of statements is true when a rectangular loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field: i. The portions of the loop that are parallel to the magnetic field will experience INFINITE force. ii. Some portions of the loop will experience an upward force and other portions a downward force. iii. The net result of the forces is to rotate the loop. iv. The motion produced by the rotation of the loop is the basis for the electric motor. v. The torque on the loop is UNRELATED to the current in the loop. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) i , iii, v Electric Meters A practical application of the effect described above is the construction of meters for measuring current and potential difference. The simplest device, the galvanometer, is used to measure small electric currents. A galvanometer (Fig 3) is constructed by placing a coil of wire in a permanent magnetic field. The coil is attached to a spring and a calibrated dial. Since the torque is proportional to the current in the coil, the deflection of the galvanometer needle will depend on this current. Fig 3. A galvanometer (below) Fig. 4: An Ammeter (above). Assessment Question 3 Which set of statements is true? i. A practical application of the torque caused by electromagnetism is the construction of meters for measuring current and potential difference. ii. A galvanometer is used to measure very large electric currents. iii. A galvanometer is constructed by placing a coil of wire attached to a spring and a calibrated dial in a permanent magnetic field. iv. The torque in a galvanometer is UNRELATED to the current in the coil. v. The deflection of the galvanometer needle will depend on this current. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) i , iii, v An ammeter (Fig. 4) is a galvanometer that has been modified in order to measure larger currents. A lowresistance device, known as a shunt, is placed in parallel with the wires of the galvanometer as shown in the diagram. Most of the current in the circuit passes through the shunt, not through the galvanometer wires. Nevertheless, the dial on the ammeter is calibrated to read the current passing through both the shunt and the galvanometer wires. An ammeter is a low-resistance device connected in series with the circuit it is measuring. The low resistance of the ammeter causes a minimal effect on the circuit. Assessment Question 4 Which set of statements is true? i. An ammeter is a thermometer that has been modified in order to measure very small currents. ii. An ammeter is a low-resistance device connected in series with the circuit it is measuring. iii. The high resistance of the ammeter causes a major effect on the circuit. iv. A low-resistance device, known as a shunt, is placed in parallel with the wires of the galvanometer. v. Most of the current in the circuit passes through the shunt, not through the galvanometer wires. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) ii , iv , v A voltmeter (Fig. 5) is a galvanometer that has been modified to measure the potential difference across two points in a circuit. Therefore, the voltmeter must be connected in parallel with the points of the circuit it is measuring, as shown in the diagram. For the voltmeter to have a minimal effect on the circuit, it must be a highresistance device so that most of the current will flow through the circuit, not through the voltmeter. This high resistance is gained by placing a large resistor in series with the galvanometer coil. Assessment Question 5 Fig. 5: A Voltmeter (above). Which set of statements is true? i. A voltmeter is an ammeter that has been modified to measure the force across two points in a circuit. ii. A voltmeter must be connected in parallel with the points of the circuit it is measuring. iii. For the voltmeter to have a minimal effect on the circuit, it must be a high- resistance device so that most of the current will flow through the circuit. iv. The high resistance in voltmeters is achieved by placing a large resistor in series with the galvanometer coil. v. The voltmeter will have the greatest effect on current flow if most of the current flows through the circuit rather than the voltmeter. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) i , iii, v Electric Motors Another application of a current-carrying loop in a magnetic field is the electric motor. The electrical energy supplied by the circuit is converted by means of the magnetic field into the mechanical energy of rotation. In a motor a coil is wound around a soft-iron core that concentrates the magnetic field and increases the magnitude of the torque. To continue the rotation past 900, the current in the coil must be reversed after each half rotation. In a direct current (dc) motor, this reversal is accomplished by means of a device called a split-ring commutator. The diagram (Fig. 5) represents a typical motor. Fig. 5: An Electric Motor (below) Free Charges In a Magnetic Field When a charged particle moves freely, the direction of its velocity is analogous to the direction of the current in a wire. If the charged particle is introduced into a magnetic field, it will experience a force that is always perpendicular to the direction of its velocity. We can derive an expression for the magnitude of the force by using the formula: F= qvB Assessment Question 6 Which set of statements is true? i. In a motor a coil is wound around a soft-iron core that concentrates the magnetic field and increases the magnitude of the torque. ii. In an electric motor the electrical energy supplied by the circuit is converted by means of the magnetic field into the mechanical energy of rotation. iii. To continue the rotation past 900, the current in the coil must be magnified after each half rotation. iv. When a charged particle moves freely, the direction of its velocity is analogous to the direction of the current in a wire. v. If a charged particle is introduced into a magnetic field, it will experience a force that is always parallel to the direction of its velocity. a) i , ii, iv b) i , iii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) i , iii, v PROBLEM Calculate the force (F) on a proton with a charge of 1.6 x 10-19 coulomb (q) moving at a speed of 2.0 x 106 m/s in a magnetic field of 0.50 tesla (B).

The fingers in the direction of the magnetic field and the force point away from the palm (for negative particles, use the left hand). Fig 7. Right Hand Rule 3 (below) Fig. 8: Motion of charged particles in a magnetic field (below). Motion of Charged Particles in a Magnetic Field Since the particle is free to move, its velocity continually changes direction and the force always remains perpendicular to the direction of the velocity. This force is a centripetal force; consequently the object moves in a circular path, as shown in the diagram above (Fig 8). Mass Spectrometry A practical application of the effect described above is a device known as a mass spectrometer (Fig. 9), which is used to measure the charge-to-mass ratio of ions. A beam of charged particles is introduced into a magnetic field (B). By measuring the radius (r) of the circular path and the speed (v) of the particles, we can calculate the charge-to-mass (q/m) ratio: q/m = v/Br Fig 9. A mass spectrometer (below). If the charges of the particles are known, then the particle masses can be determined. The mass of a particle is directly proportional to its radius of curvature in the magnetic field. The use of mass spectrometry has helped to demonstrate the existence of the electron and the existence of atomic isotopes. Assessment Question 8 Which set of statements is true? i. The velocity of a charged particle continually changes direction in a magnetic field and the force always remains perpendicular to the direction of the velocity resulting in a centripetal force and the object moving in a circular path. ii. A mass spectrometer is used to measure the charge-to-mass ratio of ions. iii. If the charges of the particles are known, then the particle masses can be determined. iv. The length of a particle is directly proportional to its breadth of curvature in the magnetic field. v.

An electron beam is generated when a filament is heated until it ejects electrons. This process, called thermionic emission, is much like the evaporation of water molecules from the surface of liquid water. Once the electrons are ejected, they are controlled by both electric and magnetic fields. The diagram (Fig. 10) shows that the direction of a beam of electrons is dependent on the electrical charges of the parallel plates above and below the beam. Fig. 10: An electron beam emitter (below) We have already seen how magnetic fields can be used to change the direction of a charged particle. Originally, a device known as a cathode ray tube was used to demonstrate the existence and control of electron beams. The cathode ray tube is an evacuated glass tube that contains a source of electrons at one end, a fluorescent screen inside the surface at the other end, and two pairs of deflecting plates in between. When an electron beam strikes the screen, it produces a fluorescent spot of light. The brightness of the spot is directly related to the intensity of the electron beam striking the screen, and the location of the spot is controlled by the electric fields. Assessment Question 10 Which set of statements is true? i. The process of thermionic emission involves an electron beam being generated when a filament is heated until it ejects electrons ii. Ejected electrons are controlled by both electric and magnetic fields in devices involving electron beams. iii. The direction of a beam of electrons in an electron beam emitter is independent of all factors and controls. iv. A cathode ray tube is sometimes used to demonstrate the existence and control of electron beams and it is composed of an evacuated glass tube that contains a source of electrons at one end, a fluorescent screen inside the surface at the other end, and two pairs of deflecting plates in between. v. A device such as a radio or hearing aide depends on the production and control of beams of electrons. a) i , ii, iii b) i , ii, iv c) ii , iii, iv d) i , iii, v Summary Magnetic fields exist whenever an electric current is present. The direction of the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the electric field. Current-carrying wires and charges moving perpendicularly through a magnetic field experience forces that are perpendicular to both the direction of the magnetic field and the motion of the charges. If the conductor is a loop, a torque will result; this fact is the basis for electric motors and meters.
