Electromagnetism
Übersicht
Every electric motor, every loudspeaker and every MRI scanner relies on the same principle: a current flowing through a magnetic field experiences a force. Electromagnetism connects electricity to magnetism and puts that connection to work in devices you use every day.
In this lesson you will trace the magnetic field around a current-carrying wire, build it into a solenoid, strengthen it into an electromagnet, and then apply Fleming's left-hand rule to predict forces. You will see how those forces drive a d.c. motor and make a loudspeaker cone vibrate to produce sound.
Ziele
- Know that an electric current in a conductor produces a magnetic field around it
- Describe the construction of electromagnets
- Draw magnetic field patterns for a straight wire, a flat circular coil and a solenoid when each is carrying a current
- Know that there is a force on a charged particle when it moves in a magnetic field as long as its motion is not parallel to the field
- Understand why a force is exerted on a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field and how this effect is applied in simple d.c. electric motors and loudspeakers
- Use the left-hand rule to predict the direction of the resulting force when a wire carries a current perpendicular to a magnetic field
- Describe how the force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field changes with the magnitude and direction of the field and current

Torque on a Current Loop: Motors and Meters
Motors are the most common application of magnetic force on current-carrying wires. Motors have loops of wire in a magnetic field. When current is passed through the loops, the magnetic field exerts torque on the loops, which rotates a shaft. Electrical energy is converted to mechanical work in the
