Important uses and examples of magnetic field
Magnetic circuits
.^ If a current of 1.0 A is used, find the magnetic field inside the solenoid if the core is air, and if the core is made of iron with μ/μ o =4,000.
.^ Here are the magnetic permeabilities of some substances: .
^ The result is that when a magnetic field enters a high-permeability material, it tends to twist abruptly to one side, and the pattern of the field tends to be channeled through the material like water through a funnel.
^ A magnetically permeable material is placed at the center of a solenoid.
.^ The Φ E equation is Gauss' law: charges make diverging electric fields.
^ The small arrows show the result of the Biot-Savart law at various positions relative to the current segment .
^ Gauss' law in differential form relates , a scalar, to the charge density, another scalar.
Extending this analogy we derive the counterpart to the macroscopic Ohm's law (
I = V ⁄ R ) as:

where

is the
magnetomotive force applied to the circuit, and
Rm is the

Notes and references
- ^ Technically, magnetic field is a pseudo vector; pseudo-vectors, which also include torque and rotational velocity, are similar to vectors except that they remain unchanged when the coordinates are inverted.
- ^ The standard graduate textbook by J. D. Jackson "Classical Electrodynamics" specifically follows the historical tradition, specifically, "In the presence of magnetic materials the dipole tends to align itself in a certain direction. That direction is by definition the direction of the magnetic flux density, denoted by B, provided the dipole is sufficiently small and weak that it does not perturb the existing field". Similarly, in Section 5 of Jackson, H is referred to as the magnetic field. Hence, Edward Purcell, in Electricity and Magnetism, McGraw-Hill, 1963, writes, Even some modern writers who treat B as the primary field feel obliged to call it the magnetic induction because the name magnetic field was historically preempted by H. This seems clumsy and pedantic. If you go into the laboratory and ask a physicist what causes the pion trajectories in his bubble chamber to curve, he'll probably answer "magnetic field", not "magnetic induction." You will seldom hear a geophysicist refer to the Earth's magnetic induction, or an astrophysicist talk about the magnetic induction of the galaxy. We propose to keep on calling B the magnetic field. As for H, although other names have been invented for it, we shall call it "the field H" or even "the magnetic field H." In a similar vein, M Gerloch (1983). Magnetism and Ligand-field Analysis. Cambridge University Press. p. 110. ISBN 0521249392. http://books.google.com/books?id=Ovo8AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA110. says: “So we may think of both B and H as magnetic fields, but drop the word 'magnetic' from H so as to maintain the distinction … As Purcell points out, 'it is only the names that give trouble, not the symbols'.”

- ^ The use of iron filings to display a field presents something of an exception to this picture; the filing alter the magnetic field so that it is much larger along the "lines" of iron, due to the large permeability of iron relative to air.
- ^ To see that this must be true imagine placing a compass inside a magnet. There, the north pole of the compass will point toward the north pole of the magnet since magnets stacked on each other point in the same direction.
- ^ Two experiments produced candidate events that were initially interpreted as monopoles, but these are now regarded to be inconclusive. For details and references, see magnetic monopole.
- ^ In special relativity this means that electric and magnetic fields are two parts of the same phenomenon, for a moving charge produces both an electric and a magnetic field. But in a reference frame where the particle is not moving, there is only an electric field. However, the same physics applies to all reference systems. In this reference system, the electric field changes as well to produces the same force as the original reference frame. It is probably a mistake, however, to say that the electric field causes the magnetic field when relativity is taken into account, since relativity favors no particular reference frame. (One could just as easily say that the magnetic field caused an electric field.) More importantly, it is not always possible to move into a coordinate system in which all of the charges are stationary. See classical electromagnetism and special relativity.[citation needed]

- ^ In practice the Biot–Savart law and other laws of magnetostatics can often be used even when the charge is changing in time as long as it is not changing too quickly. This situation is known as being quasistatic.[citation needed]

- ^ The Biot–Savart law contains the additional restriction (boundary condition) that the B-field must go to zero fast enough at infinity. It also depends on the divergence of B being zero, which is always valid. (There are no magnetic charges.)

- ^ A complete expression for Faraday's law of induction in terms of the electric E and magnetic fields can be written as:
where ∂Σ(t) is the moving closed path bounding the moving surface Σ(t), and dA is an element of surface area of Σ(t). The first integral calculates the work done moving a charge a distance dℓ based upon the Lorentz force law. In the case where the bounding surface is stationary, the Kelvin–Stokes theorem can be used to show this equation is equivalent to the Maxwell–Faraday equation.

Information
.^ Electromagnetic waves are supposed to have their electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to each other.
^ However, the electromagnetic wave also has a magnetic field, and a magnetic field transfers momentum to (exerts a force on) a current.
^ In terms of transmission, the magnetic field created by the outgoing current is almost exactly canceled by the field from the return current, so electromagnetic waves are only weakly induced.
