Key Topics to Revise
1
Magnetic Fields and Field Lines
- A compass needle is a small bar magnet with north-seeking (north pole) and south-seeking (south pole) ends
- Like poles repel each other, unlike poles attract each other
- Magnetic field is the region around a magnet where its force can be detected
2
Magnetic Field due to Current-Carrying Conductors
- Electric current through a conductor produces magnetic field around it
- Direction of magnetic field depends on direction of current
- Strength of magnetic field increases with increase in current
3
Electromagnetic Induction and Solenoids
- Solenoid carrying current behaves like a bar magnet
- One end of solenoid acts as north pole, other as south pole
- Magnetic field inside solenoid is uniform and parallel
4
Force on Current-Carrying Conductor in Magnetic Field
- Current-carrying conductor experiences force when placed in magnetic field
- Direction of force depends on direction of current and magnetic field
- Force is maximum when current and magnetic field are perpendicular
