Electromagnet
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Electromagnets usually consist of wire (likely copper) wound into a electromagnetic coil, coil. A current through the wire creates a magnetic field which is concentrated along the center of the coil. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. The wire turns are often wound around a magnetic core made from a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material such as iron; the magnetic core concentrates the magnetic flux and makes a more powerful magnet. The main advantage of an electromagnet over a permanent magnet is that the magnetic field can be quickly changed by controlling the amount of electric current in the winding. However, unlike a permanent magnet, which needs no power, an electromagnet requires a continuous supply of current to maintain the magnetic field. Electromagnets are widely used as components of other electrical devices, such as Electric motor, motor ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Line Integral
In mathematics, a line integral is an integral where the function (mathematics), function to be integrated is evaluated along a curve. The terms ''path integral'', ''curve integral'', and ''curvilinear integral'' are also used; ''contour integral'' is used as well, although that is typically reserved for #Complex line integral, line integrals in the complex plane. The function to be integrated may be a scalar field or a vector field. The value of the line integral is the sum of values of the field at all points on the curve, weighted by some scalar function on the curve (commonly arc length or, for a vector field, the Dot product, scalar product of the vector field with a Differential (infinitesimal), differential vector in the curve). This weighting distinguishes the line integral from simpler integrals defined on interval (mathematics), intervals. Many simple formulae in physics, such as the definition of Work (physics), work as have natural continuous analogues in terms of l ...

Vector Potential
In vector calculus, a vector potential is a vector field whose curl is a given vector field. This is analogous to a ''scalar potential'', which is a scalar field whose gradient is a given vector field. Formally, given a vector field \mathbf, a ''vector potential'' is a C^2 vector field \mathbf such that \mathbf = \nabla \times \mathbf. Consequence If a vector field \mathbf admits a vector potential \mathbf, then from the equality \nabla \cdot (\nabla \times \mathbf) = 0 (divergence of the curl is zero) one obtains \nabla \cdot \mathbf = \nabla \cdot (\nabla \times \mathbf) = 0, which implies that \mathbf must be a solenoidal vector field. Theorem Let \mathbf : \R^3 \to \R^3 be a solenoidal vector field which is twice continuously differentiable. Assume that \mathbf(\mathbf) decreases at least as fast as 1/\, \mathbf\, for \, \mathbf\, \to \infty . Define \mathbf (\mathbf) = \frac \int_ \frac \, d^3\mathbf where \nabla_y \times denotes curl with respect to variab ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cylindrical Coordinate
A cylindrical coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system that specifies point positions around a main axis (a chosen directed line) and an auxiliary axis (a reference ray). The three cylindrical coordinates are: the point perpendicular distance from the main axis; the point signed distance ''z'' along the main axis from a chosen origin; and the plane angle of the point projection on a reference plane (passing through the origin and perpendicular to the main axis) The main axis is variously called the ''cylindrical'' or ''longitudinal'' axis. The auxiliary axis is called the ''polar axis'', which lies in the reference plane, starting at the origin, and pointing in the reference direction. Other directions perpendicular to the longitudinal axis are called ''radial lines''. The distance from the axis may be called the ''radial distance'' or ''radius'', while the angular coordinate is sometimes referred to as the ''angular position'' or as the ''azimuth''. The r ...

Current Density
In electromagnetism, current density is the amount of charge per unit time that flows through a unit area of a chosen cross section. The current density vector is defined as a vector whose magnitude is the electric current per cross-sectional area at a given point in space, its direction being that of the motion of the positive charges at this point. In SI base units, the electric current density is measured in amperes per square metre. Definition Assume that (SI unit: m2) is a small surface centered at a given point and orthogonal to the motion of the charges at . If (SI unit: A) is the electric current flowing through , then electric current density at is given by the limit: j = \lim_ \frac = \left.\frac \_, with surface remaining centered at and orthogonal to the motion of the charges during the limit process. The current density vector is the vector whose magnitude is the electric current density, and whose direction is the same as the motion of the positiv ...

Iron
Iron is a chemical element; it has symbol Fe () and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core. It is the fourth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, being mainly deposited by meteorites in its metallic state. Extracting usable metal from iron ores requires kilns or furnaces capable of reaching , about 500 °C (900 °F) higher than that required to smelt copper. Humans started to master that process in Eurasia during the 2nd millennium BC and the use of iron tools and weapons began to displace copper alloys – in some regions, only around 1200 BC. That event is considered the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. In the modern world, iron alloys, such as steel, stainless steel, cast iron and special steels, are by far the most common industrial metals, due to their mechan ...

Ferromagnetic
Ferromagnetism is a property of certain materials (such as iron) that results in a significant, observable magnetic permeability, and in many cases, a significant magnetic coercivity, allowing the material to form a permanent magnet. Ferromagnetic materials are noticeably attracted to a magnet, which is a consequence of their substantial magnetic permeability. Magnetic permeability describes the induced magnetization of a material due to the presence of an external magnetic field. For example, this temporary magnetization inside a steel plate accounts for the plate's attraction to a magnet. Whether or not that steel plate then acquires permanent magnetization depends on both the strength of the applied field and on the coercivity of that particular piece of steel (which varies with the steel's chemical composition and any heat treatment it may have undergone). In physics, multiple types of material magnetism have been distinguished. Ferromagnetism (along with the similar effec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Permeability (electromagnetism)
In electromagnetism, permeability is the measure of magnetization produced in a material in response to an applied magnetic field. Permeability is typically represented by the (italicized) Greek letter Mu (letter), ''μ''. It is the ratio of the Magnetic field, magnetic induction B to the magnetizing field H in a material. The term was coined by William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin in 1872, and used alongside permittivity by Oliver Heaviside in 1885. The reciprocal of permeability is magnetic reluctivity. In SI units, permeability is measured in Henry (unit), henries per Metre, meter (H/m), or equivalently in newton (unit), newtons per ampere squared (N/A2). The permeability constant ''μ''0, also known as the magnetic constant or the permeability of free space, is the proportionality between magnetic induction and magnetizing force when forming a magnetic field in a classical vacuum. A closely related property of materials is magnetic susceptibility, which is a Dimensionless ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Magnetic Constant
The vacuum magnetic permeability (variously ''vacuum permeability'', ''permeability of free space'', ''permeability of vacuum'', ''magnetic constant'') is the magnetic permeability in a classical vacuum. It is a physical constant, conventionally written as ''μ''0 (pronounced "mu nought" or "mu zero"), approximately equal to 4π × 10−7 H/m (by the former definition of the ampere). It quantifies the strength of the magnetic field induced by an electric current. Expressed in terms of SI base units, it has the unit kg⋅ m⋅ s−2⋅A−2. It can be also expressed in terms of SI derived units, N⋅A−2, H·m−1, or T·m·A−1, which are all equivalent. Since the revision of the SI in 2019 (when the values of '' e'' and '' h'' were fixed as defined quantities), ''μ''0 is an experimentally determined constant, its value being proportional to the dimensionless fine-structure constant, which is known to a relative uncertainty of with no other dependencies ...
