Application: Audio speaker
A wire carrying a current in an external magnetic field experiences a force
Magnetic force on the current-carrying coil. converts electrical signal to sound wave
Example Speaker coil with 50 turns of wire and diameter 2 cm. positioned in magnetic field of 0.1 T. If the current in the coil is 1.5 A and we assume that the magnetic field is perpendicular to the entire coil, calculate (a) the force acting on the coil and cone and (b) the corresponding acceleration if the mass of the coil and cone is 0.015 Kg.

Medical uses of Magnetic fields
Main medical application
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance NMR Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI
Like electrons, protons (positively charged) in the nucleus also act as though they are spinning about an axis through their centres. Spinning protons act like a current loop and so creates a tiny magnetic field
Nuclei of some atoms (particularly Hydrogen) have small magnetic fields
In strong magnetic field they align with the field.
Medical uses of Magnetic fields MRI
Non-invasive imaging technique that discriminates between body tissues.
Patient in strong magnetic field. Radio frequency signal applied (reorients the proton spin). Absorption and re-emission measured and computer image generated showing the types of tissue present.
diagnostic tool for soft tissue – organs, ligaments, the circulatory system, spinal column, brain
MRI uses superconducting magnet;
– 6 x104 times the Earth’s magnetic field. Earth’s magnetic field ≈ 0.5 x10-4tesla. fridge magnet ≈ 10-3 tesla.
MRI scanner magnet ≈ 3 tesla
A horizontal wire lying in the east-west direction has a mass per length of 0.18g/metre and carries a current I. The wire is in a northward-directed horizontal magnetic field of strength 0.5 Tesla. Find the minimum current (I) such that the magnetic force on the wire can support the weight of the wire.

Example
A rectangular loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field with the plane of the loop perpendicular to the direction of the field. If a current is made to flow through the loop in the sense shown by the arrows, the magnetic field exerts on the loop: 1. a net force. 2. a net torque. 3. a net force and a net torque. 4. neither a net force nor a net torque.
A wire placed in magnetic field such that its length is perpendicular to the field that is of strength 10 milliTesla. If the current in the wire is 15 milliamps and the magnitude of the force on the wire is 30x10-6 N, what is the length (in cm) of the wire in the magnetic field?
B = F/IL
Therefore L =F/BI = 30x10-6 N
(10x10-3 T) (15x10-3 A)
L = 2x10-1m = 0.2m = 20cm.
Example
A wire placed in a uniform magnetic field such that it lies at an angle of 30o to the field which is of strength 10milliTesla. If the current in the wire is 15 milliamps and the length of the wire in the magnetic field is 5cm, calculate the force on the wire.
Example
F = Bsinθ IL
F =(10x10-3 T) Sin30o (15x 10-3A)(5x10-2m)
F= 3.75x10-6Newtons
F = Bsin900 IL
F =(10x10-3 T) Sin90o (15x 10-3A)(5x10-2m)
F =(10x10-3 T) (15x 10-3A)(5x10-2m)
F =7.5x 10-6N
