charged particle in a B field; 2) current element in an external B
field; 3) between two current element
Magnetic force experienced by a charge Q moving with a velocity u

Magnetization, M in amperes/meter (A/m) is the magnetic dipole


moment per unit volume
Without an external B field, the sum of magnetic moments is zero
due to random orientation; when Bfield is applied, the magnetic
moments of the electrons align themselves with B

Circuit that has inductance is called inductor
Inductance=ratio of magnetic flux linkage to current
Unit Henry (H): 1H = 1Wb/A
Usually called self-inductance since the flux linkages are produced
by the circuit itself

1831, Faraday and Henry discovered that a time-varying magnetic


field would produce an electric current
Static field no current; time-varying field produce an induced
voltage (called the electromotive force, emf)
Faradays law: Lenzs law: the ve sign the induced emf acts in such a way that
opposes the flux producing it; or the induced magnetic field by the
induced current will oppose the original field
