A magnetic conductor is a material that supports free movement of magnetic charge (magnetic monopoles), similar to an electric conductor that allows free movement of electric charges. On average the net charge is neutral. Of course, magnetic monopoles do not exist, but clever engineering can produce close to the same effects. Importantly, magnetic conductors have hugely different boundary conditions from electric conductors in electromagnetics and physics. A major research breakthrough in demonstration of wideband magnetic conductors was published in 2011 in "Wideband Artificial Magnetic Conductors Loaded With Non-Foster Negative Inductors" by Gregoire, D.J. ; HRL Labs., LLC, Malibu, CA, USA ; White, C.R. ; Colburn, J.S..

When is the force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field the largest?

When the conductor,magnetic field and motion are perpendicular to each other


Why does the current carrying conductor experiences a force when it is placed in magnetic field state Fleming's left hand rule?

The force on current carrying conductor kept in a magnetic field is given by the expression F = B I L sin@ So the force becomes zero when the current carrying conductor is kept parallel to the magnetic field direction and becomes maximum when the current direction is normal to the magnetic field direction. Ok now why does a force exist on the current carrying conductor? As current flows through a conductor magnetic lines are formed aroung the conductor. This magnetic field gets interaction with the external field and so a force comes into the scene.


When a conductor is moved in a magnetic field a voltage will be induced on the conductor however current won't flow through the conductor unless the conductor is what?

moving


What is the process called in which a conductor cuts across a magnetic field and produces a voltage?

We call it induction when we pass a conductor through a magnetic field to produce voltage.


If an electrical current passes through a conductor what two things are generated?

If an electrical current passes through a conductor, there is an induced voltage (because no conductor has perfectly zero ohms), resulting in power dissipation, and there is a magnetic field, which can interact with other conductors in the vicinity of the first.

What is the relationship between magnetic fields and electricity?

-- A current flowing through a conductor creates a magnetic field around the conductor. -- Moving a conductor through a constant magnetic field creates a current in the conductor. -- If there's a conductor sitting motionless in a magnetic field, a current flows in the conductor whenever the strength or direction of the magnetic field changes.


What does a changing magnetic field induce in a conductor?

A changing magnetic field induces an electric current in a conductor.


What three things needed to complete magnetic induction?

A changing magnetic field A conductor or coil of wire Movement between the magnetic field and the conductor (relative motion)


Force on a current-carrying conductor?

When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, a force is exerted on the conductor due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the current. This force is known as the magnetic Lorentz force and its direction is perpendicular to both the magnetic field and the current flow. The magnitude of the force depends on the strength of the magnetic field, the current flowing through the conductor, and the length of the conductor exposed to the magnetic field.


What is the force on a circular conductor in a magnetic field?

How is the movement of electrons in a conductor related to the formation of magnetic field?

When electrons move through a conductor, they create a flow of electrical current. This flow of current generates a magnetic field around the conductor in accordance with Ampere's law. The strength of the magnetic field is directly related to the magnitude of the current and the distance from the conductor.


When lines of force are cut by a conductor you have magnetic?

Presumably, you are asking what happens when a conductor 'cuts' lines of magnetic flux? If so, then a voltage is induced across the ends of that conductor.


Can a static magnetic field exist in a good conductor?

A static magnetic field can exist in a good conductor. When the conductor carries current, it produces the flux which can exist inside the conductor. Due to this flux, magnetic field and intensity at a point inside the good conductor.


What does a conductor do in a magnetic field when current is suddenly passed through it?

When current is suddenly passed through a conductor in a magnetic field, it experiences a force due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the current. This force causes the conductor to move, resulting in electromagnetic induction and the generation of an electric current in the conductor.


Moving a conductor through a magnetic field a voltage is induced in the conductor is called what type of induction?

Moving a conductor through a magnetic field will produce alternatinc current (AC).


What is the magnetic effects of electrical current?

When an electrical current flows through a conductor, it creates a magnetic field around the conductor. This phenomenon is known as electromagnetism. The strength of the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current flowing through the conductor.


Dc current having magnetic field?

When a direct current (DC) flows through a conductor, it generates a magnetic field around the conductor. This phenomenon is described by Ampere's law, which states that a magnetic field is produced around a current-carrying conductor. The strength of the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current flowing through the conductor.
