  2. Ampère's force law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_force_law

    In magnetostatics, the force of attraction or repulsion between two current-carrying wires (see first figure below) is often called Ampère's force law. The physical origin of this force is that each wire generates a magnetic field , following the Biot–Savart law , and the other wire experiences a magnetic force as a consequence, following ...

  3. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    In three dimensions, the derivative has a special structure allowing the introduction of a cross product: = + = + from which it is easily seen that Gauss's law is the scalar part, the Ampère–Maxwell law is the vector part, Faraday's law is the pseudovector part, and Gauss's law for magnetism is the pseudoscalar part of the equation.

    The third of Maxwell's equations is called the Ampère–Maxwell law. It states that a magnetic field can be generated by an electric current. [13] The direction of the magnetic field is given by Ampère's right-hand grip rule. If the wire is straight, then the magnetic field is curled around it like the gripped fingers in the right-hand rule.

  5. Electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism

    The electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. It is the dominant force in the interactions of atoms and molecules. Electromagnetism can be thought of as a combination of electrostatics and magnetism, which are distinct but closely intertwined phenomena. Electromagnetic forces occur between any two charged particles.

  6. Vacuum permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permeability

    Ampère's force law describes the experimentally-derived fact that, for two thin, straight, stationary, parallel wires, a distance r apart, in each of which a current I flows, the force per unit length, F m /L, that one wire exerts upon the other in the vacuum of free space would be given by .

  7. Weber electrodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weber_electrodynamics

    Importantly, Gauss's force law is a significant generalization of Ampere's force law, since moving point charges do not represent direct currents. In fact, today Ampere's force law is no longer presented in its original form, as there are equivalent representations for direct currents such as the Biot-Savart law in combination with the Lorentz ...

  9. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    The I symbol was used by André-Marie Ampère, after whom the unit of electric current is named, in formulating Ampère's force law (1820). [8] The notation travelled from France to Great Britain, where it became standard, although at least one journal did not change from using C to I until 1896. [9]
