Atomic Magnets
 A plausible explanation for
the magnetic properties of
materials is the orbital motion
of the atomic electrons.
 The figure shows a simple
simple,
classical model of an atom in
which a negative
g
electron
orbits a positive nucleus.
 In this picture of the atom, the electron’s motion is that
of a current loop!
 An orbiting electron acts as a tiny magnetic dipole,
with a north pole and a south pole
pole.

Magnetic Properties of Matter
 For most elements, the
magnetic moments of
th atoms
the
t
are
randomly arranged
when the atoms join
together to form a
solid.
 As the figure shows,
this random
arrangement produces
a solid whose net
magnetic moment is
very close to zero.
Physics 201: Lecture 1, Pg 5
Ferromagnetism
 In iron, and a few
other substances, the
atomic magnetic
moments tend to all
line up in the same
direction, as shown
in the figure.
g
 Materials that behave
in this fashion are
called ferromagnetic,
with the prefix ferro
meaning “iron-like
iron like.”
Physics 201: Lecture 1, Pg 6
Ferromagnetism
 A typical piece of iron is divided
into small regions, typically less
than 100 m in size, called
magnetic domains.
 The magnetic moments of all
the iron atoms within each
domain are perfectly aligned
aligned,
so each individual domain is
a strong magnet.
 However, the various magnetic
domains that form a larger solid
are randomly

Induced Magnetic Dipole
 If a ferromagnetic substance is subjected to an external
magnetic field
field, the external field exerts a torque on the
magnetic dipole of each domain.

Faraday’s Discovery of 1831

When a bar magnet is pushed
into a coil of wire, it causes a
momentary deflection of the
current-meter needle.

A quick withdrawal of the
magnet deflects the needle in
the other direction.

Holding the magnet inside the

Motional EMF
 The magnetic force

 In this case, a pushing
force is needed to keep
the wire moving at
constant speed.
 Once again
again, this input
power is dissipated in

The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber:
