Atoms Within Magnets

The MRI scanner is a large magnet that is 30,000 times stronger than the earth’s magnetic field. The force increases as a person or a ferromagnetic object move closer to the magnet. The strong magnetic field of the MR scanner is Always on even when the MR scanner is not in use.

for so long unexplained and although there has been a lot of progress in figuring out how magnetism works and what it’s caused by, it still isn’t completely understood. There are many theories about magnetism, but there is still much more yet to be discovered about magnetism. In the future it will probably be easily understood, but none the less intriguing.

Magnetism can attract magnetic objects or push them away. Magnets have a magnetic north pole and a magnetic south pole. If the same pole of two magnets are placed near each other they

Magnetism is the physics phenomenon produced by the movement of an electric charge causing in an attraction and repulsion force between an object. A magnetic field can be created by an electronic solenoid and can be influenced by multiple variables. The number of coils on a solenoid will affect the strength of the magnetic field. Furthermore, the length of the solenoid will determine the strength of the magnetic field. As more current is passed through a solenoid the magnetic field will greaten. Current and voltage are propionate and as voltage increases, so will the current. Many variables may affect the strength of a solenoid, some of which are the number of turns wrapped and length of the rod.

What magnetism does to affect your life is that every day that you use electricity you have un appreciated the fact that magnetism was one of the opening things to electricity. Did you know that the man who invented electricity was the same man who invented magnetism. People somehow had compasses before magnetism

Magnetism is a class of physical phenomena mediated by magnetic fields. All materials are in some way influenced by a magnetic field. The force between any two charged particles depends on the magnitude of the charge on each and the distance that separates them. In addition to electrical forces, there is a force due to the motion of the charged particles known as the magnetic force.

A magnetic field is an area in which there is an electrical charge where a magnetic force acts. A magnetic field can be induced in a circular loop and it can be calculated if the radius, current, and number of turns are all known. When in the form of a coil it is directed along the axis of the coil and is usually uniform throughout the coil until it begins to fall off when it gets further away from the center. Another characteristic of magnetic field is that it can be changed to induce a voltage. That induced voltage is known as the magnetic flux and it can be calculated by knowing the area of the coil and the value of the magnetic field going through the coil.

Electrons circling an atom set up small magnetic fields. In most materials, these fields are aligned in a fairly random manner, so that all of these small fields cancel each other. In a magnet, however, these fields line up to create a net magnetic dipole, so that the object sets up a magnetic field in the surrounding space.

The majority of all electric motors use the interaction of two magnetic fields in order to produce torque

The lesson objectives were clear and measurable. While reading What Makes a Magnet?, vocabulary and comprehension questions were asked to ensure there was a conceptual understanding of the terms “magnetic” and “nonmagnetic.” These definitions were imperative for a student to know, as they would not be able to sort objects correctly without understanding the concept. Once the students could differentiate between the two groups, students would use a magnet wand to test the objects. This shows that the students could use tools to investigate. Lastly, the students were to sort the objects tested into two groups, placing the objects in either a

Human civilisation has dealt with magnetism for millennia, earliest evidence dating as far back as 1000 BC where the ancient Chinese civilisation discovered a naturally occurring magnetic ore, magnetite. This ore, commonly known as lodestone was used by the ancient Chinese as a geomagnetic compass, however, no one really knew what magnetism was at the time. For centuries on, we have had basic knowledge regarding electricity based upon static electricity found from rubbing amber and fur. However, up until the early 1800s, our understanding of electricity and magnetism was severely limited – considering both of them as entirely separate phenomena.

Magnetostriction is a property of ferromagnetic materials that exhibit a mechanical strain in response to an applied external magnetic field. This effect is a reversible exchange of energy between the mechanical and the magnetic form. Magnetostriction was first described in 1842 by James Joule after he observed that a sample of

The state and behavior of a magnetic material is recognized by the directional sum of its magnetic moments. Without the influence of an external magnetic field, the cross’s magnetic moments produce a neutral directional sum, indicating that the cross is not attracted in any one direction. Once the lifting magnet is engaged however, the direction of the moment sum shifts towards the lifting magnet, indicating that the cross is attracted to the magnet.

Magnetic repulsion works on the principle of using electro magnets to levitate objects. Unlike normal magnets, electro magnets are created by the movement of current through wires. This means that the strength of the magnet can be changed by increasing or decreasing the current in the wire. As well as this, it is possible to change the poles of the magnet. This is important as it allows the magnet to both push and pull depending on the current. Using the idea that north repels north and south repels south, if the ground were to have the same pole as the electric magnet, then the electric magnet would hover. This idea can better be seen in figure 1.

The wedges are generally made of lightweight materials, such as aluminum or brass, in the winding slots. This area does not generally carry the useful magnetic lux, so the wedges do not need to be made of magnetic material.
