MAGNETISM. “wlagnetic field ~ the region in which 2 magnetic material is acted upon by a magnetic force ‘Magnetic lines of force ~ indicate the region in which the force of the magnet can be detected Magnetomative force - the counterpart of electromotive force in an electric circuit. Without the mzgnetomotive force ‘agnetic flux cannot be established ‘Magnetic flux ~ 3 measure of the strength of a magnetic fleld over a given area perpendicular to it, equal to the product ‘of the area and the magnetic flux density through it Xeluclance ~ the opposition of magnetic circuit to the establishing of magnetic flux. its the counterpart of resistance in an clectriccireult. "ermeance ~a measure of the ability ofa given magnetic circuit to permit the setting up of magnetic lines of force Permeability ~a figure indicating the ability of a material to permit the setting up of magnetic ines of force Flectromagnet ~ 3 type of magnet made by winding several turns of current-carrying conductor around an iron core tnductance~the property of an electric cicuit that opposes any change in current in that circuit Flectromagnetic induction ~ the generation of an emf when a conductor cuts across magnetic ines of force ‘tual induction ~the genration of an em in the secondary winding by a changing current inthe primary winding Self-induction — the generation of an emf in an electric circuit by a changing current in the same circuit Setf-inductance ~ the property of an electric circuit that opposes any change in current in that circuit Faraday’s law ~ the emf induced in an electric circuit is proportional to the ratio of change of the flux of mahnetic induction tinked with the circuit ‘era's law —the direction of the induced emf must be such that any current resulting from it will dvelop a flux which tends to oppose any change in the original Characteristics of magnets: 1. Magnetic tines of force possess direction. 2. Magnetic lines of force always form complete loops. 2. Magnetctnes of fore represent a tension along their length which tends to make them as skort a possible 4. Magnetic tines of force repel one another, 5. Magnetic lines of farce cannot intersect but must always frm individual dosed foops ike poles repel one another, 7. Magnetic fields aways tend to arrange themselves in such @ manner thatthe maximum number of magnetic lines of force is setup. fF “Quantity = ‘Formula _f ‘number of turns in the coil turns current 7 “Ampere or amp ‘ross-sectional area of the A square meter or int magnetic circuit length of the magnetic circuit T meterorm magnetic flax o weber or wb magnetomotive force Fin ‘amp-turns reluctance Rn ‘amp-tarns/wb permeance Bra wh/amp-turns | permeability a Pat wb/amp-turn-m A RA flux density B & wh/m'ortesleorT | A | ‘magnetic field intensity W Fall ampcturnsjin | inductance | L deed, henry or H | T
