Summary of Magnetism Problems definitions Flashcards

Entities that produce electric fields and experience forces in the presence of other charges.

A field produced by moving charges or magnets, represented by the symbol B.

The force experienced by a charge or wire in a magnetic field.

The flow of electric charge through a conductor, necessary for producing magnetic fields.

Imaginary lines representing the direction and strength of a field, such as electric or magnetic.

Coils of wire that produce a uniform magnetic field when carrying current.

Circular arrangements of wire that generate magnetic fields when current flows through them.

A charge that creates an electric field affecting other charges.

A charge that experiences a force due to an electric field from another charge.

A pre-existing magnetic field in which charges or wires can experience forces.

A magnetic field generated by moving charges or current-carrying wires.

Wires through which electric current flows, producing magnetic fields.

Charges at rest that only produce electric fields, not magnetic fields.

A collection of formulas used to solve problems related to fields and forces in magnetism.

The force experienced by two interacting charges or magnets, each affecting the other.
