Ampere's law: explanation, definition, formula

Definition:-

"Ampere's Law states that magnetic field around a conductor in which electric current is flowing, is directly proportional to the amount of electric current flowing through conductor."

Explanation:

Ampere's law provide us method or formula to calculate magnetic field, produced by electric current.
Just like electric field is directly proportional to the amount of charge, the magnetic field is directly proportional to the amount of electric current from which it is producing.

Formula:-

The most difficult in ampere's law is to derive its equation or make the formula for calculating the magnetic field around a long conducting wire.
So let's start this,
Consider we have long straight conducting wire, when electric current flows through it, the magnetic fields produces around the wire in concentric circle. As shown in below pic.


Every circle is for some specific part of wire and as we move forward in wire, the distance between these circles increases, that mean magnetic field is decreasing. Direction of magnetic field can be found by Fleming's right hand rule.(with direction of current giving)
Now to make the formula, consider there all the parts of wire( which have there magnetic field circuit) having length L and there magnetic field around these parts or elements is B for (every part).

So the equation will become,


And after removing proportionality,

where 𝝁 is the premiability of material or conductor.
B is the magnetic field and delta L is the sum of all length parts and I is the current flowing through the conductor,
sigma shows that the sum of all the length elements or parts with their magnetic field.
Where delta L could be replace by 2πr for particular(single part) length element.
So Then magnetic filed would become,

Electric Charge density, definition, explanation

Definition:

"Electric charge density is the amount of charge on unit volume space or surface or area."


Explanation:

Electric charge density is the density of charge on unit area, the charge could be less or  more, and charge could be positive or negative.
as shown in figure 1 below, in which there is positive charge on surface but less and on figure 2, there is more positive charge.
So area in figure 2 have more electric charge density than figure 1.
The area or volume could be one dimensional, two dimensional and three dimensional. 


Formula:

The electric charge density can be written in the form,
Where p is the charge density and q is the amount of charge and v is the volume of space and unit area. we can replace the v by A, when there is unit area.

Inductor, Inductance, explanation, formula

Definition:-

"Inductor is an electronic device that is use to store energy in the form of magnetic field."


Explanation:-

Inductor store energy in magnetic field around it. Inductor is an coil of a conductor(wire). wire wounding on some rod or magnet. when a current passes through the conductor then there will be magnetic field around the wire. We wound the wire because by winding there would produce a strong magnetic field around this, we could increase the strength of  magnetic field around coil by taking efficient core like magnet and by increasing number of turns of coil and increasing cross sectional area of inductor. When current flows through the inductor there would produce magnetic field around it and in that magnetic field energy would be store (in the form electrons). It would be store until current is flowing through it. When current will stop it will release all the energy.
Inductor does not allow AC current to flow through it due its changing direction nature. While inductor resist to change in current so it becomes open in a circuit while AC current flows through the circuit. It allows DC current to flow through it. After charging completely it allows DC to flow through the circuit hence become short in circuit with zero resistance.

Inductance:-

Inductance is the property of a inductor which is that "whenever Flux is changed in it, it produces an EMF."
or in simple words
Inductance is the ability of an inductor to store energy in the form magnetic field.
Henry is the unit of Inductance.

Formula:

formula for inductance of inductor is,

Work

Definition:-

"Work is the product of force and the distance covered by a body due to force applied on it"


Explanation:-

In physics work is done on a body, when we apply some force on it and it covers some distance in the direction of force.
Work is not done until body is not covering some distance whether force is applied on it or not, body has to cover some distance in order to get work done. or work will not be done until force will not be apply on it whether it is covering some distance or not. so both things are necessary.

Example:-

1.When you try to push the box by applying force on it and box start to move in direction of force, then your are doing work.
2.When you try to push the wall then you apply force but wall doesn't move, so you are not working (According to physics).

Unit:-

The Sl unit of work is joule J

Formula:-

Work also have an formula to calculate it mathematically,

W=F.d.cosθ

As define work is the product of force and distance and the angle between them. 


Conditions:-


1.This cos shows that when force applied and distance covered is in same direction then angle will be 0, where cos(0)=1, hence work will be maximum.
2. When force applied and distance cover will be perpendicular to each other than angle will be 90 and cos(90)=0, hence work will be 0.
3. When force applied and distance covered is in opposite direction  then work will be negative as, angle will be 180 and cos(180)=  -1.


AC Generator

Definition:-

"The machine which is used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy(AC current) is known as AC Generator"

Explanation:-

The device which gives us AC current(Electrical energy) by taking mechanical energy from any source(could be us) is known as Ac generator. Its construction is similar to dc generator and its working is also same almost. 


The above shown diagram is of AC generator. our need is to get the current which changes its direction after every half cycle, so to get this we need to get the current from one slip ring for one half and for other slip ring for the second half. Slip rings are connected at different ends of closed circuit. where load is connected. So that load will get Ac current.

Construction:-

It consists of following parts:-
1.Magnet
2.Slip Rings or Commutator
3.Conducting Coil or Armature
4.Carbon brushes
5. Load  

Working:-

According to the Faraday's Law of electromagnetic induction, whenever a conducting coil is move or rotates across magnetic field emf produces in it and due to this, current starts to flow through it. So in this generator when coil will move by some mechanical force across magnetic field of magnet, then there will produce an EMF and because of this, current will start to flow through it(if coil path is closed or connected to other circuit). Direction of current will be according to Fleming's right hand rule. 
As shown in this diagram, For first half rotation of coil the current will go to the load form one slip ring and for 2nd half rotation of coil the current will go from the other slip rings to the load so it is giving ac current to the load as it is changing its direction after every half cycle.

Generator(DC)

Definition:-

"The device which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy is known as Generator."



Explanation:-

Generator use to produce electrical energy from mechanical energy for our purpose.
Above shown diagram is of DC generator, its construction is same as Electric motor(DC), the difference is that from where we give input in input, from there we get output from generator. the mechanical energy could of any type. for example moving pivot with your hand and by some other source.

Construction:-

It consists of:-

1.Magnet
2.Conducting Coil loop
3.Commutator
4.Carbon brushes
5.Battery

Working:-

According to Faraday's law, whenever a conducting coil will move across magnetic field then there will produce an EMF, and due to this, current will start to flow through coil (if path is closed). the direction of current will be according to Fleming's Right hand rule(Described below). Then this current will go through commutator and through carbon brushes it will go through battery and will charge. That its simple working!


Faraday's Law of electromagnetic induction:-

This law state's that" whenever a conducting coil is move across the magnetic field of magnet, then EMF will produce in coil and current will start to flow through it" Current direction would be according to Fleming right hand rule.


Fleming's Right hand rule:-

According to this law "Straighten your thumb, fore finger and middle finger so that they become perpendicular to each other(right angle to each other) and then your thumb will represent the coil, your fore finger will represent the magnetic field and your middle finger will represent the direction of current flow."

laws of motion. explanation

There are 3 laws of motion. It is described(invented) by Newton.
They're:

1.First law of motion (law of inertia)

"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force"


Explanation:

It means that a body in rest condition, will remain in rest until a force will act, whether is the Force by human, air or from anywhere.


 Example:

 A book will remain on table unless you will pick it or it is blow away by some wind. And body will remain in motion unless some force will stop it. I.e. A car will never stop until you break it.

2. Second law of motion

" Acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object."


Explanation:

It means that if a body has change in its velocity(speed) or position, then its depend upon the total force acting upon him and the mass of the body. It is also known as law of inertia. Having low mass will demand less force for change in its speed.

Example:

If you will apply same force on car and then truck. Car will have more acceleration than truck because car have less mass with respect to the truck.

Formula:

acceleration = Force/mass (a=F/m)

                                        F= a.m



Third law of motion:-

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Explanation:-

Its means that if there will be action from some body to other body, there is always a re-action from other body equal in force but opposite in direction.

Example:-

If you throw the tennis ball to the wall then ball will return back to you with same speed. You throw the ball it is an action the ball returns it is an reaction and in opposite direction.
