  2. Solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid

    The magnetic field lines follow the longitudinal path of the solenoid inside, so they must go in the opposite direction outside of the solenoid so that the lines can form loops. However, the volume outside the solenoid is much greater than the volume inside, so the density of magnetic field lines outside is greatly reduced.

  3. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    The device creates a magnetic field [1] from electric current, and uses the magnetic field to create linear motion. [2] [3] [4] In electromagnetic technology, a solenoid is an actuator assembly with a sliding ferromagnetic plunger inside the coil. Without power, the plunger extends for part of its length outside the coil; applying power pulls ...

  4. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    The magnetic field of larger magnets can be obtained by modeling them as a collection of a large number of small magnets called dipoles each having their own m. The magnetic field produced by the magnet then is the net magnetic field of these dipoles; any net force on the magnet is a result of adding up the forces on the individual dipoles.

  5. Magnetic dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_dipole

    The magnetic field due to natural magnetic dipoles (upper left), magnetic monopoles (upper right), an electric current in a circular loop (lower left) or in a solenoid (lower right). All generate the same field profile when the arrangement is infinitesimally small.

  6. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    the magnetic field B changes (e.g. an alternating magnetic field, or moving a wire loop towards a bar magnet where the B field is stronger), the wire loop is deformed and the surface Σ changes, the orientation of the surface dA changes (e.g. spinning a wire loop into a fixed magnetic field), any combination of the above

  7. Magnetic moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_moment

    The magnetic moment also expresses the magnetic force effect of a magnet. The magnetic field of a magnetic dipole is proportional to its magnetic dipole moment. The dipole component of an object's magnetic field is symmetric about the direction of its magnetic dipole moment, and decreases as the inverse cube of the distance from the object.

  8. Aharonov–Bohm effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aharonov–Bohm_effect

    The most commonly described case, sometimes called the Aharonov–Bohm solenoid effect, takes place when the wave function of a charged particle passing around a long solenoid experiences a phase shift as a result of the enclosed magnetic field, despite the magnetic field being negligible in the region through which the particle passes and the ...

  9. Moving magnet and conductor problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_magnet_and...

    Consequently, in the magnet frame where the conductor is moving, the Lorentz force points in the negative y-direction, perpendicular to both the velocity, and the B-field. The force on a charge, here due only to the B-field, is =, while in the conductor frame where the magnet is moving, the force is also in the negative y-direction, and now due ...
