Common Exam II – Monday October 31 4-5:30pm.
Exam will cover Chapters 24, 25, 26, 27, and
28.1-3. Multi-loop Kirchhoff circuits and RC
circuits (last week’s material) and Magnetic
fields (this week’s material) will NOT be on
Common Exam II.
Most of us are familiar with permanent magnets.
Small magnetic material
such as found in compass
can indicate local direction
of magnetic field
Simple Bar magnets have a “north” and
“south” pole analogous to magnetic field of
the earth
Magnetic axis of earth is DIFFERENT than
rotation axis (north geographic axis) of earth.
Why is the north pole of magnet at the south pole?
Force of Magnetic Field (B) on a
charged particle
FB  qv  B
Vector Cross Product follows
