1. Chapter 27 Magnetism HW6: Chapter 25: Pb. 19, Pb.25, Pb. 31 Chapter 26: Pb 18, Pb.32, Pb.50, Pb. 51 Due Wednesday, March 23

2. I An ammeter measures current; a voltmeter measures voltage. Both are based on galvanometers, unless they are digital. 26-7 Ammeters and Voltmeters

3. I The current in a circuit passes through the ammeter; the ammeter should have low resistance so as not to affect the current.

4. I 26-7 Ammeters and Voltmeters Example 26-15: Ammeter design. Design an ammeter to read 1.0 A at full scale using a galvanometer with a full-scale sensitivity of 50 μA and a resistance r = 30 Ω. Check if the scale is linear.

5. I A voltmeter should not affect the voltage across the circuit element it is measuring; therefore its resistance should be very large. 26-7 Ammeters and Voltmeters

6. I An ohmmeter measures resistance; it requires a battery to provide a current. 26-7 Ammeters and Voltmeters

7. I Summary: How to connect Meters? An ammeter must be in series with the current it is to measure; A voltmeter must be in parallel with the voltage it is to measure. 26-7 Ammeters and Voltmeters

8. I Magnets have two ends – poles – called north and south. Like poles repel; unlike poles attract. 27-1 Magnets and Magnetic Fields

9. However, if you cut a magnet in half, you don’t get a north pole and a south pole – you get two smaller magnets. 27-1 Magnets and Magnetic Fields

10. Magnetic fields can be visualized using magnetic field lines, which are always closed loops. 27-1 Magnets and Magnetic Fields

11. Magnetic Fields similarities with Electric Fields North and South poles Like poles repel Opposite poles attract Field lines outside the material move from N to S Positive and Negative Charges Like Charges repel Opposite Charges attract Field lines move from + to - Electric Magnetic

12. Magnetic Fields similarities with Electric Fields Electric Field Magnetic Field tangent to the field lines the strongest where the field lines are the closest tangent to the field lines the strongest where the field lines are the closest

13. The Earth’s magnetic field is similar to that of a bar magnet. Note that the Earth’s “North Pole” is really a south magnetic pole, as the north ends of magnets are attracted to it. 27-1 Magnets and Magnetic Fields

14. A uniform magnetic field is constant in magnitude and direction. The field between these two wide poles is nearly uniform. 27-1 Magnets and Magnetic Fields

15. Experiment shows that an electric current produces a magnetic field. The direction of the field is given by a right-hand rule. 27-2 Electric Currents Produce Magnetic Fields

16. Here we see the field due to a current loop; the direction is again given by a right-hand rule.

17. A magnet exerts a force on a current- carrying wire. The direction of the force is given by a right-hand rule.

18. The force on the wire depends on the current, the length of the wire, the magnetic field, and its orientation: This equation defines the magnetic field In vector notation: 27-3 Force on an Electric Current in a Magnetic Field; Definition of B

19. Unit of B: the tesla, T: 1 T = 1 N/A·m. Another unit sometimes used: the gauss (G): 1 G = 10 -4 T. 27-3 Force on an Electric Current in a Magnetic Field; Definition of B Directions of the Magnetic Field:

20. 27-3 Force on an Electric Current in a Magnetic Field; Definition of B Example 27-1: Magnetic Force on a current-carrying wire. A wire carrying a 30-A current has a length l =12 cm between the pole faces of a magnet at an angle θ = 60, as shown. The magnetic field is approximately uniform at 0.90 T. We ignore the field beyond the pole pieces. What is the magnitude and direction of the force on the wire?

21. Problem 8 8.(II) A long wire stretches along the x axis and carries a 3.0-A current to the right (+x). The wire is in a uniform magnetic field Determine the components of the force on the wire per cm of length.

22. 27-3 Force on an Electric Current in a Magnetic Field; Definition of B Example 27-2: Measuring a magnetic field. A rectangular loop of wire hangs vertically as shown. A magnetic field B is directed horizontally, perpendicular to the wire, and points out of the page at all points. The magnetic field is very nearly uniform along the horizontal portion of wire ab (length l = 10.0 cm) which is near the center of the gap of a large magnet producing the field. The top portion of the wire loop is free of the field. The loop hangs from a balance which measures a downward magnetic force (in addition to the gravitational force) of F = 3.48 x 10 -2 N when the wire carries a current I = 0.245 A. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field B?
