“Because of
changing
temperatures and
fluid flows, the
strength of the
magnetic field
varies, and the
positions of the
north and south
magnetic poles
shift.”

Introduction
We have studied that an electrostatic field is produced
by static or stationary charges
If the charges are moving with constant velocity, a
static magnetic (or magnetostatic) field is produced
A magnetostatic field is produced by a constant current
flow (or direct current)
This current flow may be due to magnetization currents
as in permanent magnets, electron-beam currents as in
vacuum tubes, or conduction currents as in current-
carrying wires

Introduction
There are two major laws governing magneto static
fields:
(1) Biot-Savart's law
(2) Ampere's circuit law
