Magnetic Field Induction
1 Magnetic filed induction near an infinitely long straight conductor :
\(B=\frac {\mu_0 i} {2\pi r}\)
i = current through the conductor
r = perpendicular distance
2 From Bio-Savart's law, the intensity of magnetic induction due to the element of a current-carrying conductor is
\(dB=\frac {\mu_0 } {4\pi} \frac {idl\sin \theta} {r^2} (Wb/m^2)\)
\(\mu_0\) = permeability of free space
i = current through the conductor
dl= length of an element in the conductor
r = distance from the element
\(\theta\) = angle between dl and r
Vector Form
The vector form of biot-savant's law is \(\overline{dB}=\frac {\mu_0} {4\pi}.\frac {i(\overline{dl}\times \overline{r})} {r^3}\)
The magnetic field induction at a point on the axial line of a current-carrying circular coil is
\(B=\frac {\mu_0nir^2} {2(r^2+x^2)^{\frac 32 }}\)
n = number of turns of the coil
i = strength of current
r = radius of the coil
x = distance to the point from the centre of the coil
Magnetic Moment
At the center of a coil \(B_c=\frac {\mu_0 ni} {2r}\)
The magnetic moment of a circular coil of n turns to carry current i with radius r is \(M=niA=ni\pi r^2\)
Force on a moving charge in a magnetic field is
\(\overline{F}=q(\vec{v}\times \vec{B})\)
\(\vec{F}= qvB\sin \theta\)
Force Acting On A Current
The force acting on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is
\(\overline{F}=i(\vec{l}\times \vec{B})\)
\(F=ilB\sin \theta\)
B= magnetic field induction
i = current through the conductor
l = length of the conductor
\(\theta\) = angle between \(\overline{l}\) and \(\overline{B}\)
Radius Of Circular Path
This force acts right angles to \(\overline{B}\) and \(\overline{V}\).its acts as centripetal force and the path of the particle will be circular. The radius of the circular path is given by
\(r=\frac {mv} {Bq} ;r=\frac {p} {Bq}\) \(\Big( Bqv=\frac {mv^2} {r}\Big)\)
Oersted Experimentally
1. The space in the surroundings of a magnet or a current-carrying conductor in which its magnetic influence can be experienced is called magnetic field. Its SI unit is Tesla (T).
2. Oersted experimentally demonstrated that the current-carrying conductor produces magnetic field around it.

Oersted's Law
In April 1820, Hans Christian Oersted discovered that flow of current in a wire can deflect nearby magnetic compass needle.

Definition of Ampere
If two parallel wires carrying same current are kept 1 m apart, if experience a force \(F=\ 2\ \times 10^{-7}\ N,\) then current = 1 A in each wire.
