,Electric Charge and Electric Field
 A distribution of electric charge at rest creates an electric field, E, at all points in the
surrounding space
 This electric field, E, exerts a force (F = qE) on any other charge present within the
electric field

, Magnetic Field and Magnetic Forces
Equations




Magnetic force, FB, acting on a moving charge within a magnetic field, B:
 Units = N


FB = q v B sinθ
Magnetic force, FB, acting on a current-carrying wire inside a magnetic field, B:


FB = I l B sinθ

Torque on a current-carrying loop in a magnetic field:
 Units = Nm
 φ is the angle between B and the normal (line perpendicular) to the face of the loop
o τmax when B is parallel to A (90˚ to normal)
o τmax when B is perpendicular to A (0˚ to normal)
τ = IAB sinφ



Magnetic moment, µ
 Units = Am2




Magnetic field, B, in the center of a solenoid
