• MEGNITISM APPLICATION2 )
• NATURE OF MAGNETISM3 )
• GENRAL PROPERTIES OF MEGNITISM4)
INTRODUCTION :-
• Is the study of magnetic fields and their effect on materials.
• The effect is due to unbalanced spin of electrons in atom.
• It is readily observed every day – from the simple magnet that
attracts nails and other metals to cassette tapes to magnet-driven
trains.
MEGNITISM APPLICATIONS :-
• In terms of applications, magnetism is one of the most
important fields in physics.
• Large electromagnets are used to pick up heavy loads.
• Magnets are used in such devices as meters, motors, and
loudspeakers.
• Magnetic tapes and disks are used routinely in sound-and
video-recording equipment and to store computer data.
• Intense magnetic fields are used in magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) devices to explore the human body with better
resolution and greater safety than x-rays can provide.
NATURE OF MAGNETISM
• In the ancient country of Lydia, in western Asia Minor, now
Turkey, was a city called Magnesia.
• The Greeks discovered that certain iron ores found in the
place could attract other pieces or iron, they called it
magnetite's.
• Magnetite's are classified as natural magnet.
• It is now believed that magnetism is due to the spin of
electrons within the atoms.
• Since the electron is a charged particle, the concept implies
that magnetism is a property of a charged particle in motion.
• The power of attraction of a magnet depends on the
arrangement of the atoms.
• All atoms are in themselves tiny magnet formed into
groups called DOMAINS.
• The magnetic strength is increased if the domains are
induced to fall into line by the action of another magnet.
GENRAL PROPERTIES OF MEGNITISM :-
• The properties of naturally occurring magnets
(magnetite's) have been known for over 2,000 years.
• Several studies on magnetism were made, but the first
thorough investigation was done by William Gilbert in 1600.
• Experimental results led to the discovery of the many
properties of natural and artificial magnets.
• Magnets come in many shapes and sizes, but each has at
least two poles.
• If you cut a magnet into pieces, every piece will still have
at least two poles.
