Electromagnetism and magnetism Interaction between a magnet and a conductor through which flows a current The thermal and chemical effects of an electric current occur in the track of the current . Consider next actions of currents away from it . Just as electricity at rest has its electric field, so does the moving one; the environment of a conductor carrying a current exercises apparent distant action: Especially on nearby magnetic needles. A magnetic needle has at every point on Earth's surface a definite direction (in a definite magnetic meridian ) and, if you force it to turn elsewhere and then release it, it will always return to its initial direction. Apparently a force ( Earth's magnetism ) keeps the needle within the magnetic meridian; it requires work, to deflect it from it. Work of this kind can be performed by an electric current: It diverts the magnetic needle (first discovered by Oerstedt 1820) and thereby performs what only a magnet can do - in other words: Flowing electricity exerts magnetic forces . For the direction in which the current turns the needle you have the rule: Imagine you swim in the conductor

Building an electric motor in 10 minutes. The single brush motor. A bigger motor. The double brush improvement. ... A railgun in 10 minutes A simple homemade Van de Graaff generator In the previous two projects, we stole high voltage from a television set to power our high voltage motors. In this project we will build a device that can generate 12,000 volts from an empty soda can and a rubber band. The device is called a Van de Graaff generator. Science museums and research facilities have large versions that generate potentials in the hundreds of thousands of volts. Ours is more modest, but is still capable of drawing 1/2 inch sparks from the soda can to my finger. The spark is harmless, and similar to the jolt you get from a doorknob after scuffing your feet on the carpet. To build the toy, you need: An empty soda can A small nail A rubber band, 1/4 inch by 3 or 4 inches A 5x20 millimeter GMA-Type electrical fuse (such as Radio Shack #270-1062) A small DC motor (such as Radio Shack #273-223) A battery clip (Radio Shack #270-324) A battery holder (Radio Shack #270-382) A styrofoam cup (a paper cup will also work) A hot glue gun (or regular glue if you don't mind waiting) Two 6 inch long stranded electrical wires (such as from an extension cord) Two pieces of 3/4 inch PVC plumbing pipe, each about 2 or 3 inches long

Optional Unit VII: Electromagnetism B. Electromagnetism Key Concepts Oersted discovered that a magnetic field is created in the region of a current-carrying conductor. The direction of the magnetic field lines is dependent on the direction of current flow through a conductor. The magnetic field forms a series of concentric circles around a straight conductor. The strength of the magnetic field diminishes inversely as the radial distance from the conductor increases. At any given distance from the conductor, the strength of the magnetic field increases directly with the amount of current in the conductor. Ampere's Rule (right-hand rule) can be used to describe the direction of the magnetic field about a straight conductor. If the conductor is grasped with the right hand in such a way that the right thumb points in the direction of the current, the fingers wrap around the conductor in the direction of the magnetic field. (Some texts refer to the "right-hand rule". Avoid this convention to prevent unnecessary confusion.) The strength of a magnetic field around a conductor can be intensified by coiling the conductor into a loop. A large number of loops form a coil, or

However, you don't go far in magnetism before you encounter the problem of its unit systems. That's right: system s , plural. You can understand that the world has different unit systems for length or mass. One half talks of pounds, feet and inches while the other says grams, millimetres and metres . Hundreds of millions of people find that the older 'imperial' or British system works for them (despite the occasional mishap ). They conclude that it isn't worth the effort and expense of changing.

34. Electromagnetism Actually, there is only a single field, the electromagnetic field , but for historical purposes it has been split into the concepts of the electric field http://www.eryptick.net/dj/electrom.htm

Electromagnetism, Relativity, and Maxwell a draft by David Jefferies 18th August 2000 revised 29th September 2000 see also http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/D.Jefferies/emant.html Charge is mysterious. We know it comes in two sorts, distinguished by the labels "positive" and "negative". We might just as well call it "Tom" and "Jerry". The behaviour of charge is summarised by the two facts that "like charges repel, unlike charges attract, the force being proportional to the product of the amounts of charge" and "the repulsion (or attraction) falls off as the square of the distance between the charges." Unfortunately, the early investigators assigned positive charge to the static ions, and that left negative charge for the mobile electrons. Thus, a stream of electrons travelling to the right actually represents a positive "current" or "charge flow" to the left. The "inverse square law" means that the repulsive force between two "Toms" falls to a quarter of its original value each time the distance between the "Toms" is doubled....and the attractive force between a single "Tom" and a single "Jerry" likewise falls to a quarter every time the distance between them is doubled. If we suddenly put two Toms together and some distance away there is a single Jerry, [notwithstanding the fact that we might question whether the two Toms would repel each other so much that they would fly apart,] the pair of them instantaneously attract the single Jerry with twice the force that just a single Tom would.

Black Holes and Electromagnetism Abstract: Contents Black Hole Electrodynamics Accretion Disks Black Hole Magnetosphere Flux Freezing ... Disc Field Lines Black Hole Electrodynamics Black hole electrodynamics is the theory of electrodynamics outside a black hole. This is evident since we cannot gain information about anything inside the event horizon (i.e. Black hole electrodynamics can be very trivial if you consider just a black hole described by the three usual parameters: mass, electric charge and angular momentum. Initially simplifying the case by disregarding rotation, we simply get the well known solution of a point charge. This is of course not physically very interesting, since it seems highly unlikely that any black hole (or any celestial body) should not be rotating. Adding rotation then we have to use the Kerr metric with the change that charge is present. This is the Kerr-Newmann geometry where A rotating charged black hole creates a magnetic field around the hole because the inertial frame is dragged around the hole. Far from the black hole at infinity the black hole electric field is that of a point charge, and the magnetic field is a dipole with magnetic moment However, black holes do not even have charges. The ratio of charge to mass, Q/M, cannot exceed

39. Oersted Contemporary historians of science do not all agree that the discovery of electromagnetism by Hans Christian Oersted in 1820 was directly tied to Friedrich http://www.clas.ufl.edu/users/fgregory/oersted.htm

Episodes in Romantic Science Oersted and the Discovery of Electromagnetism by Frederick Gregory Department of History University of Florida Contemporary historians of science do not all agree that the discovery of electromagnetism by Hans Christian Oersted in 1820 was directly tied to Friedrich Schelling's system of romantic nature philosophy, nor is it clear how one could establish this assertion beyond doubt. What is clear is that Oersted was attracted to certain fundamental tenets of German idealistic thought and, as we shall see, a direct personal link between Schelling and Oersted can be demonstrated. In fact, it was reported later in the nineteenth century that a few years before his death Oersted himself credited Schelling with the stimulus necessary to the discovery of electromagnetism. The reader may not have anticipated that thoughts as abstruse and apparently "unscientific" as Schelling's could constitute an intellectual environment that might contribute to the uncovering of so fundamental a scientific discovery as electromagnetism. Hans Christian Oersted Hans Christian Oersted was born in the south central part of Denmark in 1777. He and his younger brother Anders entered the University of Copenhagen in 1793, Hans concentrating on medicine, physics, and astronomy while Anders took up law. The brothers did not confine their attention to these fields, for, as was common in a university education in those days, they dabbled in a wide variety of disciplinary studies. In 1797 Hans earned first prize for an essay on "Limits of Poetry and Prose." In the same year the elder Oersted brother completed a degree in pharmacy with high honors, and two years later he was awarded the degree Doctor of Philosophy with a dissertation entitled "On the Form of an Elementary Metaphysics of External Nature."
