century BC
 Chinese used a compass
 Uses a magnetic needle
 Probably an invention of Arabic or Indian origin
 800 BC
 Greeks
 Discovered magnetite (Fe3O4) attracts pieces of iron
A Brief History of Magnetism, 2
 1269
 Pierre de Maricourt found that the direction of a
needle near a spherical natural magnet formed
lines that encircled the sphere
 The lines also passed through two points
diametrically opposed to each other
 He called the points poles
A Brief History of Magnetism, 3
 1600
 William Gilbert
 Expanded experiments with magnetism to a variety of
materials
 Suggested the Earth itself was a large permanent
magnet
A Brief History of Magnetism, 4
 1819
 Hans Christian Oersted
 Discovered the
relationship
between electricity
and magnetism
 An electric current
in a wire deflected a
nearby compass
needle
A Brief History of Magnetism,
final
 1820’s
 Faraday and Henry
 Further connections between electricity and
magnetism
 A changing magnetic field creates an electric field
 Maxwell
 A changing electric field produces a magnetic field
Magnetic Poles
 Every magnet, regardless of its shape, has
two poles
 Called north and south poles
 Poles exert forces on one another
 Similar to the way electric charges exert forces on
each other
 Like poles repel each other
 N-N or S-S
 Unlike poles attract each other
 N-S
Magnetic Poles, cont.
 The poles received their names due to the way a
magnet behaves in the Earth’s magnetic field
 If a bar magnet is suspended so that it can move
freely, it will rotate
 The magnetic north pole points toward the Earth’s north
geographic pole
 This means the Earth’s north geographic pole is a magnetic
south pole
 Similarly, the Earth’s south geographic pole is a magnetic
north pole
Magnetic Poles, final
 The force between two poles varies as the
inverse square of the distance between them
 A single magnetic pole has never been
isolated
 In other words, magnetic poles are always found
in pairs
 All attempts so far to detect an isolated magnetic
pole has been unsuccessful
 No matter how many times a permanent magnetic is
cut in two, each piece always has a north and south
pole
Magnetic Fields
 Reminder: an electric field surrounds any
electric charge
 The region of space surrounding any moving
electric charge also contains a magnetic field
 A magnetic field also surrounds a magnetic
substance making up a permanent magnet
Magnetic Fields, cont.

pole of a compass needle points in that
location

Magnetic Field
 The magnetic field at some point in space
can be defined in terms of the magnetic
force,

Force on a Charge Moving in a
Magnetic Field
 The magnitude FB of the magnetic force
exerted on the particle is proportional to the
charge, q, and to the speed, v, of the particle
 When a charged particle moves parallel to the
magnetic field vector, the magnetic force
acting on the particle is zero
 When the particle’s velocity vector makes any
angle  0 with the field, the force acts in a
direction perpendicular to both the velocity
and the field
FB on a Charge Moving in a
Magnetic Field, final
 The magnetic force exerted on a positive
charge is in the direction opposite the
direction of the magnetic force exerted on a
negative charge moving in the same direction
 The magnitude of the magnetic force is
proportional to sin , where  is the angle the
particle’s velocity makes with the direction of
the magnetic field
More About Direction

More About Magnitude of F
 The magnitude of the magnetic force on a
charged particle is FB = |q| v B sin 
  is the smaller angle between v and B
 FB is zero when the field and velocity are parallel
or antiparallel
  = 0 or 180o
 FB is a maximum when the field and velocity are
perpendicular
  = 90o
Differences Between Electric
and Magnetic Fields
 Direction of force
 The electric force acts along the direction of the
electric field
 The magnetic force acts perpendicular to the
magnetic field
 Motion
 The electric force acts on a charged particle
regardless of whether the particle is moving
 The magnetic force acts on a charged particle
only when the particle is in motion
Work in Fields, cont.
 The kinetic energy of a charged particle
moving through a magnetic field cannot be
altered by the magnetic field alone
 When a charged particle moves with a given
velocity through a magnetic field, the field can
alter the direction of the velocity, but not the
speed or the kinetic energy
Units of Magnetic Field
 The SI unit of magnetic field is the tesla (T)
 Wb is a weber
 A non-SI commonly used unit is a gauss (G)

Charged Particle in a Magnetic
Field
 Consider a particle moving
in an external magnetic field
with its velocity
perpendicular to the field
 The force is always directed
toward the center of the
circular path
 The magnetic force causes
a centripetal acceleration,
changing the direction of
the velocity of the particle

Motion of a Particle, General
 If a charged particle moves
in a magnetic field at some
arbitrary angle with respect
to the field, its path is a
helix
 Same equations apply, with
Bending of an Electron Beam
 Electrons are
accelerated from rest
through a potential
difference V
 The electrons travel in
a curved path
 Conservation of energy
will give v
 Other parameters can
be found
Particle in a Nonuniform
Magnetic Field
 The motion is complex
 For example, the
particles can oscillate
back and forth between
two positions
 This configuration is
known as a magnetic
bottle
Van Allen Radiation Belts
 The Van Allen radiation
belts consist of charged
particles surrounding the
Earth in doughnut-shaped
regions
 The particles are trapped by
the Earth’s magnetic field
 The particles spiral from
pole to pole
 May result in Auroras
Charged Particles Moving in
Electric and Magnetic Fields
 In many applications, charged particles will
move in the presence of both magnetic and
electric fields

forces due to the individual fields

Velocity Selector
 Used when all the
particles need to move
with the same velocity
 A uniform electric field
is perpendicular to a
uniform magnetic field
Velocity Selector, cont.
 When the force due to the electric field is
equal but opposite to the force due to the
magnetic field, the particle moves in a
straight line
 This occurs for velocities of value
v = E / B
Velocity Selector, final
 Only those particles with the given speed will
pass through the two fields undeflected
 The magnetic force exerted on particles
moving at speed greater than this is stronger
than the electric field and the particles will be
deflected to the left
 Those moving more slowly will be deflected
to the right
Mass Spectrometer
 A mass spectrometer
separates ions
according to their
mass-to-charge ratio
 A beam of ions passes
through a velocity
selector and enters a
second magnetic field
Mass Spectrometer, cont.
 After entering the second magnetic field, the
ions move in a semicircle of radius r before
striking a detector at P
 If the ions are positively charged, they deflect
to the left
 If the ions are negatively charged, they
deflect to the right
Thomson’s e/m Experiment
 Electrons are accelerated
from the cathode
 They are deflected by
electric and magnetic
fields
 The beam of electrons
strikes a fluorescent
screen
 e/m was measured
Read about it
Cyclotron
 A cyclotron is a device that can accelerate
charged particles to very high speeds
 The energetic particles produced are used to
bombard atomic nuclei and thereby produce
reactions
 These reactions can be analyzed by
researchers
Cyclotron, 2
 D1 and D2 are called
dees because of their
shape
 A high frequency
alternating potential is
applied to the dees
 A uniform magnetic
field is perpendicular to
them
Cyclotron, 3
 A positive ion is released near the center and
moves in a semicircular path
 The potential difference is adjusted so that
the polarity of the dees is reversed in the
same time interval as the particle travels
around one dee
 This ensures the kinetic energy of the particle
increases each trip
Cyclotron, final
 The cyclotron’s operation is based on the fact
that T is independent of the speed of the
particles and of the radius of their path

Hall Effect
 When a current carrying conductor is placed
in a magnetic field, a potential difference is
generated in a direction perpendicular to both
