When the magnetic core saturates, further increase in current produces minimal increase in magnetic flux, causing inductance to decrease. This is the saturation effect in magnetic cores.
After acceleration: ½m₁v₁² = q₁V and ½m₂v₂² = q₂V. In magnetic field, r = mv/(qB). r₁/r₂ = (m₁v₁/q₁)/(m₂v₂/q₂) = (4u × √(2eV/4u)/2e)/(u × √(2eV/u)/e) = √(2u/e) × e/(√(2eV) × √(2V/u)) = 2√2:1.
Magnetic energy U = ½LI² where L = μ₀N²A/(2πR) for a toroid. Therefore U = μ₀N²I²A/(4πR). Note: The correct formula is actually U = ½ × μ₀N²I²A/(2πR) = μ₀N²I²A/(4πR).
For a circular arc, B = (μ₀I/4πR) × θ, where θ is in radians. This is derived from the Biot-Savart law integrated over the arc.
Hall voltage V_H = BId/ne·t indicates carrier sign from voltage polarity and carrier density n from magnitude. This dual information makes Hall effect powerful for semiconductor characterization.
For coaxial coils with large separation d >> radius, mutual inductance M ∝ 1/d² due to spreading of magnetic field lines. This is used in wireless power transfer systems.
In a toroid, using Ampere's law on circular path of radius r (inside toroid): B(2πr) = μ₀NI, so B = μ₀NI/2πr. Field varies inversely with distance from toroid center.
For undeflected motion, electric and magnetic forces must balance: qE = qvB, giving E = vB. This is the principle of velocity selector used in mass spectrometers.
For equal perimeter, circle encloses maximum area (isoperimetric inequality). Since magnetic moment m = IA, circular loop with larger area has larger magnetic moment.
