When do I Use F/BIL ?

[MattyH]

Is it for calculating length etc?

 

[telectrix]

wtf is F/BIL ?

 

[MattyH]

F Divided by B x I x L

 

[telectrix]

yes but what do the letters represent?

F= force in newtons B is tesla the density of the magnetic field I is current flowing in the conductor and L is lengthof the conductor in the magnetic field in metres
F= B x I x L


its for calculating force on a conductor
the force that moves the current carrying conductor that is placed in a magnetic field depends upon the strength of the magnetic flux density ( B ) the magnitude of the current flowing in the conductor ( I ) and the length of the conductor in the magnetic field
or transpose to find B = F / I x L
or transpose to find L = F /B x I
to do with electromagnetism

flemings left hand rule and all that lol

 

[Silly Sausage]

B = F / ( I x L )
L = F / ( B x I )

Bruce, don't forget your brackets.
Slightly pedantic, I know, but it avoids confusion & wrong results! :smile5:

thinking of cancelling forumn membership getting a bit heavy for me this lol
