Class 12 Physics Chapter 4 – Important Concepts

The region in space where a Magnet has its magnetic effect is known as the Magnetic field of the Magnet.

F = q [E(r) + v × B(r)] = E_Electric + F_magnetic

Magnetism is a property displayed by Magnets and produced by the moving charges. This results in the objects being attracted or pushed away.

The relation between a moving charge and magnetism is that Magnetism is caused due to the movement of charges.

Lorentz Force is the total force on a given charge c, moving with a velocity v, in the presence of electric field E and magnetic field B. (This force acts normal to v and the work done by it is zero)

F = q(v x B + E)

Magnetic Force on a Current-Carrying Conductor: Due to the motion of charges in a conductor, each charge experiences a force. When current is passed through a magnetic field, the magnetic field exerts a force on the wire in a perpendicular direction to the current and the magnetic field as well.

$F= I (I \times B ) or |F | = I |I||B| sin \theta $
