Magnetic Effect of Electric Field is the property where an electric field is produced around a current-carrying conductor. This effect was first demonstrated by Prof H.C Oersted in the year 1820. He observed deflection in the magnetic needle when it is kept next to a current-carrying conductor. The direction in which the needle deflects is given by Ampere’s law.
Using Ampere’s Law, the strength of the magnetic field surrounding a long straight current-carrying wire is given by
\(\begin{array}{l}B = \frac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi d}\end{array} \)
|
Where
B = Strength of the magnetic field
d = distance
I = current in wire
\(\begin{array}{l}\mu_{0}\end{array} \)
= permittivity of free space
\(\begin{array}{l}F= IlBsin\theta\end{array} \)
|
This is the equation for magnetic force on a length l of wire carrying a current I in a uniform magnetic field B
