Dipoles align somewhat but little increase in B. • Ferromagnetic materials are materials in which nearby molecules cause each other to align. As a result, a weak magnetic field can cause the alignment of all dipoles and creates a much larger magnetic field. Some are permanently aligned (permanent magnets). • “Diamagnetism arises from the orbital magnetic dipole moments induced by an applied magnetic field. These magnetic moments are opposite the direction of the applied magnetic filed, thereby decreasing the field.” All materials usually do this somewhat but are masked by ferromagnetism and paramagnetism. “Diamagnetism is thus observed only in materials whose molecules have no permanent magnetic moments.” See pages 874 to 885 Chapter 28 - Magnetic Induction φm = S B · ndA = ˆ S Bn dA d dt B · ndA ˆ s (21) (22) (23) (24) ε=V =− dφm = dt ε = −Blv Enc · dl = − C 2 Inductance φm = LI φm L= = µ0 n2 Al I dI ∆V = −L dt 12 Um = LI 2 Magnetic Energy Density um = B2 2µ0 (29) (25) (26) (27) (28) 3
