Types of Magnetic Materials With Examples
There are Five types of magnetic materials. Examples of magnetic materials are: Paramagnetic materials Diamagnetic materials Ferromagnetic materials Ferrimagnetism Antiferromagnetism Aluminum, manganese, etc are examples of paramagnetic materials, Copper, water, alcohol are some examples of diamagnetic materials. Iron, Nickle, and…

Difference between electric and magnetic field
The difference between electric and magnetic fields is that “Electric field is the area around the charged particles, it was introduced by Michel Faraday. While the magnetic field is the area or region around the magnet where poles of the…

Difference between Fuse and Circuit Breaker
The fuses and circuit breakers are devices used in electrical circuits to interrupt the flow of electricity in case of overload. Both devices can be understood as safety systems to prevent an electrical overload from causing damage, both to the devices and to the electrical network. The difference…

Magnetic flux and magnetic flux density
The group of force lines going from the north pole to the south pole of a magnet is called the magnetic flux, symbolized by Φ (the Greek letter phi). The number of lines of force in a magnetic field determines the value…

Electric Flux formula and Unit
The total number of field lines passing through a certain element of area is called electric flux. It is a scalar quantity. SI Units for electric flux are Nm²/c. Electric flux is positive when the area is held perpendicular to…

Electromagnetism Examples
Electromagnetism is a branch of physics that deals with a unifying theory from the fields of both electricity and magnetism, to formulate one of the four fundamental forces of the universe known so far: electromagnetism. The other fundamental forces are gravity and strong and…

Different Types of transformer and their uses
A transformer is an electrical device that is used to change a given alternating emf into a larger or smaller alternating emf. There are basically two main types of transformers step-up transformer which converts a low input voltage into high…

Difference between mutual and self induction
The process in which a changing current in one coil induces emf in another coil, is called mutual induction. While the phenomenon in which a changing current in a coil induces an emf in itself is called self-induction. What is…

What are some Examples of Electrical energy?
Electrical energy definition “Electrical energy is produced by moving electric charges commonly through a wire.”When the charge moves from a higher electric potential to a lower potential, it delivers an electric current. Thus, the process, during which charges continuously move…
