Magnetism Chapter 36 Magnetic Poles ► Magnetic Poles – one of the regions on a magnet that produces magnetic forces ► The end of a magnet that points northward is called the north-seeking (north) pole, and the end that points southward is the south-seeking (south) pole ► All magnets have a north and south pole, in a common bar magnet they are on either end Like poles repel; opposite poles attract ► If you break a bar magnet in half, each half will still behave as a complete magnet Magnetic Poles Magnetic Fields ► Magnetic Field - a force field that fills the space around every magnet or current-carrying wire; another magnet or current-carrying wire introduced into this region will experience a magnetic force ► The shape of the field is revealed by magnetic field lines; the lines spread out from one pole, curve around the magnet, and return to the other pole ► The direction of the field outside the magnet is from the north to the south pole; where the lines are closer together, the field strength is greater Magnetic Fields The Nature of a Magnetic Field ► Just as an electric charge is surrounded by an electric field, the same charge is also surrounded by a magnetic field if it is moving ► A magnetic field is produced by the motion of an electric charge ► In magnetic substances, such as iron, the magnetic fields created by spinning electrons do not cancel each other out; large clusters of magnetic atoms align to form magnetic domains ► In nonmagnetic substances, electron pairs within the atoms spin in opposite directions; there is no net magnetic field The Nature of a Magnetic Field Magnetic Domains ► Magnetic Domains – a microscopic cluster of atoms with their magnetic fields aligned ► The difference between a piece of ordinary iron and an iron magnet is the alignment of domains ► In a common iron nail, the domains are randomly oriented ► In an iron magnet, the domains have been aligned with each other Magnetic Domains Electric Currents and Magnetic Fields ►A moving charge produces a magnetic field ► Many charges in motion—an electric current—also produce a magnetic field ► The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire are in concentric circles about the wire ► If the wire is bent into a loop, the field lines will become bunched up within the loop ► Electromagnet – magnet with a field produced by electric current; usually in the form of a wire coiled around a piece of iron Electric Currents and Magnetic Fields Electric Currents and Magnetic Fields Magnetic Forces on Moving Charged Particles ►A charged particle at rest will not interact with a static magnetic field ► But if the charged particle moves in a magnetic field, the magnetic character of its motion will be evident ► The charged particle experiences a deflecting force ► The force is greatest when the particle moves in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field lines ► The direction of force is always perpendicular to both the magnetic field lines and the velocity of the charged particle ► So, a moving charge is deflected when it crosses magnetic field lines but not when it travels parallel to the field lines Magnetic Forces on Moving Charged Particles Magnetic Forces on Current-Carrying Wires ► If the particles are trapped inside a wire when they respond to the deflecting force, the wire will also move ► If the direction of current in the wire is reversed, the deflecting force acts in the opposite direction ► The force is maximum when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines ► The force is perpendicular to both field lines and current, and it is a sideways force Magnetic Forces on Current-Carrying Wires Meters to Motors A simple DC motor A simple galvanometer Earth’s Magnetic Field ►A compass points northward because Earth itself is a huge magnet; the compass aligns with the magnetic field of Earth ► The magnetic poles do not correspond with the geographic poles, but vary greatly (and move!) ► Magnetic Declination – discrepancy between the orientation of a compass and true north ► The field is thought to be caused by Earth’s liquid iron outer core, rotating around its solid iron inner core ► The magnetic field of Earth is not stable, but reverses itself (20 times in the last 5 million years) Earth’s Magnetic Field Homework Assignment (Due 4/29) ► Read Chapter 36 (pg. 562-574) ► Do Chapter Assessment #21-32 (pg. 576)
