Lecture on JEE Revision: Moving Charges and Magnetism

Introduction

  • Welcome by Kadi Ma'am, Master Teacher for Physics.
  • Emphasis on the importance of revisions and regular attendance.
  • Discussion on veltech university admission queries.
  • Focus of the class: Moving Charges and Magnetism.

Key Topics Covered

Importance of the Topic

  • Moving charges and magnetism have high weightage in JEE exams.
  • Typically, 1-2 questions are asked from this topic in JEE.

Basic Concepts

Interaction of Charges with Magnetic Field

  • Charged particles in magnetic fields experience a force.
  • Force Formula: ** F = q(ar{v} imes ar{B}) **where q = charge, v = velocity, and B = magnetic field.
  • Vector form: ** F = q(ar{v} imes ar{B})
  • Force is zero when the angle θ (between velocity vector and magnetic field) is 0° or 180°.
  • Maximum force occurs at θ = 90°.

Movement in Magnetic Field

  • When a charged particle moves perpendicular to the magnetic field, it takes a circular path.
  • Circle radius formula: ** r = rac{mv}{qB}
  • Centripetal force for circular motion provided by magnetic force.
  • Relations using momentum and kinetic energy: ** r = rac{p}{qB} and r = rac{ oot{2mk}}{qB}

Helical Path

  • If the velocity of a charged particle is not perpendicular (θ ≠ 90°), it follows a helical path.
  • Components of velocity: parallel ** (v ext{cos} θ) ** and perpendicular **. ``(v ext{sin} θ **
  • Radius of circular path (helix): ** r = rac{mv ext{sin} θ}{qB}
  • Pitch of helical path: ** pitch = ext{velocity along axis} * ext{time period} = v ext{cos} θ * T where ** T = rac{2πm}{qB}

Biot-Savart Law

  • Magnetic field due to a small segment of current-carrying wire Formula:
B = rac{μ₀}{4π} * rac{Idl 	ext{sin} θ}{r²}
  • Application to circular loops, solenoids, etc.
  • Magnetic field at a point on the axis of a circular loop, and center calculations:
  • For center:
B = μ₀nI / (2r)
  • For a point on axis:
B = (μ₀nIr²) / (2(r² + x²)^(3/2))

where n = number of turns, r = radius, x = distance along the axis.

Straight Conductor and Current Loop

  • Magnetic field around a straight current-carrying conductor and semicircular loop.
  • Infinite wire magnetic field due to a straight conductor: ** B = μ₀I / (2πr)
  • Semicircular loop magnetic field:
B = rac{μ₀IΦ}{4πR}
  • Magnetic force between two parallel conductors carrying currents I1 and I2: ** F/L = (μ₀I1I2) / (2πd)

Practical Applications and Formulas

  • Torque on current-carrying loop: ** τ = nBIA sin θ
  • Potential Energy of magnetic dipole: ** U = -μB cos θ
  • Moving coil galvanometer working principle essentials
  • Current and Voltage sensitivity in galvanometers
  • Conversion from galvanometer to ammeter and voltmeter.

Problem Solving

  1. **Homework Problems Blood

  2. Repeated JEE questions: Focus topics and high-yield concepts such as equilibrium torque, axis field calculations, and Biot-Savart law.

Conclusion

  • Encouragement to practice, revise, and understand the basic concepts thoroughly.
  • Regular class times and resources shared for further practice and study.
  • Importance of Physics in competitive exams reiterated and motivations for continuous study.
