  2. Force between magnets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_between_magnets

    The magnetic pole model assumes that the magnetic forces between magnets are due to magnetic charges near the poles. This model works even close to the magnet when the magnetic field becomes more complicated, and more dependent on the detailed shape and magnetization of the magnet than just the magnetic dipole contribution.

  3. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    Measure the force on q at rest, to determine E. Then measure the force on the particle when its velocity is v; repeat with v in some other direction. Now find a B that makes the Lorentz force law fit all these results—that is the magnetic field at the place in question.

  4. Coercivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coercivity

    Coercivity, also called the magnetic coercivity, coercive field or coercive force, is a measure of the ability of a ferromagnetic material to withstand an external magnetic field without becoming demagnetized. Coercivity is usually measured in oersted or ampere/meter units and is denoted H C.

  5. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    Paramagnetic materials have a weak induced magnetization in a magnetic field, which disappears when the magnetic field is removed. Ferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic materials have strong magnetization in a magnetic field, and can be magnetized to have magnetization in the absence of an external field, becoming a permanent magnet. Magnetization is ...

  6. Magnetometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetometer

    Faraday force magnetometry uses the fact that a spatial magnetic field gradient produces force that acts on a magnetized object, F = (M⋅∇)B. In Faraday force magnetometry the force on the sample can be measured by a scale (hanging the sample from a sensitive balance), or by detecting the displacement against a spring.

  7. Gauss (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_(unit)

    Carl Friedrich Gauß in 1828, aged 50 years old. The gauss (symbol: G, sometimes Gs) is a unit of measurement of magnetic induction, also known as magnetic flux density.The unit is part of the Gaussian system of units, which inherited it from the older centimetre–gram–second electromagnetic units (CGS-EMU) system.

  8. Faraday balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_balance

    The force is measured as a weight change using a torsion balance. An alternative method for measuring magnetic susceptibility is the Gouy balance. In this technique there is an inhomogeneous magnetic field in the central region between two (flat) poles of a magnet, either a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. The sample must be in powder form ...

  9. Oersted - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted

    Cassette tape label with coercivity (a measure of the external magnetic flux required to magnetize the tape) measured in oersteds. The oersted is defined as a dyne per unit pole. [clarification needed] [6] The oersted is ⁠ 1000 / 4π ⁠ (≈79.5775) amperes per meter, in terms of SI units. [7] [8] [9] [10]
