CBSE Class 12 Physics Chapter 4 Revision Notes

Chapter 4: Moving Charges and Magnetism

  • Magnetic field is the area around a magnet or a current-carrying conductor in which its magnetic influence can be felt. Tesla is the SI unit for it (T).
  • Oersted demonstrated that the current-carrying conductor generates a magnetic field around it in an experiment.

  • A magnetic field in the center of a circular current-carrying conductor or coil.

  • Magnetic field in the semi-circular current-carrying conductor’s center.

  • Any point on the axis of a circular current-carrying conductor has a magnetic field.

Ampere’s Circuital Law

  • Any closed loop’s line integral of the magnetic field B is equal to 0 times the total current I threading through the loop, i.e.
