Magnetism • Magnetic effects from natural magnets have been known for a
long time. Recorded observations from the Greeks more than 2500 years ago.
• The word magnetism comes from the Greek word for a certain type of stone (lodestone) containing iron oxide found in Magnesia, a district in northern Greece.
• Properties of lodestones: could exert forces on similar stones and could impart this property (magnetize) to a piece of iron it touched.
• Small sliver of lodestone suspended with a string will always align itself in a north-south direction—it detects the earth’s magnetic field.
The Magnetic Field
Permanent bar magnets have opposite poles on
each end, called north and south. Like poles
repel; opposites attract.
If a magnet is broken in half,
each half has two poles:
Bar Magnet • Bar magnet ... two poles: N and S
Like poles repel; Unlike poles attract.
• Magnetic Field lines: (defined in same way as electric field lines,
direction and density)
• Does this remind you of a similar case in electrostatics?

Earth’s Magnetic Field
Magnetic Monopoles? • Perhaps there exist magnetic charges, just like electric charges. Such an entity
would be called a magnetic monopole (having + or - magnetic charge).
• How can you isolate this magnetic charge?
Try cutting a bar magnet in half:
• Many searches for magnetic monopoles—the existence of which would explain (within framework of QM) the quantization of electric charge (argument of Dirac)
• No monopoles have ever been found!

Even an individual electron has a magnetic “dipole”!
Source of Magnetic Fields? • What is the source of magnetic fields, if not magnetic charge?
• Answer: electric charge in motion!
– e.g., current in wire surrounding cylinder (solenoid) produces very similar field to that of bar magnet.
• Therefore, understanding source of field generated by bar magnet lies in understanding currents at atomic level within bulk matter.

Intrinsic “spin” of electrons (more important effect)
Magnetic Fields in analogy with Electric Fields
Electric Field: – Distribution of charge creates an electric field E(r) in
the surrounding space.
– Field exerts a force F=q E(r) on a charge q at r
Magnetic Field: – Moving charge or current creates a magnetic field B(r)
in the surrounding space.
– Field exerts a force F on a charge moving q at r
– (emphasis this chapter is on force law)

“electric” drill, solenoid actuator.

The Magnetic Force on Moving Charges
This is an
experimental result
– we observe it to
be true.

• q = 0 or 180o

The Magnetic Force on Moving Charges
The magnetic force on a moving charge is
actually used to define the magnetic field:

• The SI unit of magnetic field is the tesla (T).

• How do we find the direction of the magnetic force F?

The Magnetic Force on Moving Charges
In order to figure out which
direction the force is on a
moving charge, you can use a
right-hand rule. This gives the
direction of the force on a
positive charge.
Direction of FB: Right-Hand Rule #1
• Your thumb is in the direction of the force if q is positive.

Left Hand Rule
• Left hand rule is used for electrons charges.
• Your turn… how would it look like?

The Motion of Charged Particles in a
Magnetic Field
A positively charged particle in an electric field
experiences a force in the direction of the field;
in a magnetic field the force is perpendicular to
the field. This leads to very different motions:
The Motion of Charged Particles in a
Magnetic Field
Because the magnetic force is always
perpendicular to the direction of motion, the path
of a particle is circular.
Also, while an electric field can do work on a
particle, a magnetic field cannot – the particle’s
speed remains constant.
The Motion of Charged Particles in a
Magnetic Field
For a particle of mass
m and charge q,
moving at a speed v
in a magnetic field B,
the radius of the
circle it travels is:

The Motion of Charged Particles in a
Magnetic Field
In a mass spectrometer, ions of different mass
and charge move in circles of different radii,
allowing separation of different isotopes of the
same element.
The Motion of Charged Particles in a
Magnetic Field
If a particle’s velocity
makes an angle with the
magnetic field, the
component of the
velocity along the
magnetic field will not
change; a particle with
an initial velocity at an
angle to the field will
move in a helical path.

Summary of Chapter 22
• All magnets have two poles, north and south.
• Magnetic fields can be visualized using
magnetic field lines. These lines point away
from north poles and toward south poles.
• The Earth produces its own magnetic field.
• A magnetic field exerts a force on an electric
charge only if it is moving:
• A right-hand rule gives the direction of the
magnetic force on a positive charge.
Summary of Chapter 22
• If a charged particle is moving parallel to a
magnetic field, it experiences no magnetic force.
• If a charged particle is moving perpendicular to a
magnetic field, it moves in a circle:
• If a charged particle is moving at an angle to a
magnetic field, it moves in a helix.
