Biot-Savart law and Ampere’s law

Zener Breakdown and Avalanche Breakdown

A PN-junction diode can be operated in both forward and reverse biassed modes, as we know. A Zener diode is a type of diode that operates well in reverse biassed conditions. In a reverse biassed state, both Zener and avalanche breakdown occur. The nature of operations differs significantly between Zener and avalanche breakdown. If the […]

What is Forward Bias?

A diode is a small electronic element that lets the current passing through the component flow only in one direction but not the other. Biasing is carried out in a diode to regulate the direction of the current in the diode. Biasing a diode is done in two different ways.  They are forward bias and

Forward and Reverse bias characteristics

In the syllabus of physics, diodes and variable voltage and current flow is a topic that all students should know. According to the current flow direction, there are two types of bias: reverse bias and forward bias. The diode mechanism is complicated to understand without proper knowledge of quantum mechanics. This chapter is specifically designed

Derivation of Biot Savart Law

Jean Baptiste Biot and Felix Savart, two French physicists, came up with the Biot-Savart law in 1820. They came up with the mathematical expression for magnetic flux density at a point due to a nearby current-carrying conductor. It was because of this that these two scientists thought that any object with a current in it

Biot – Savart law and its application to current carrying circular loop

Biot-Savart law, in physics, is the basic fundamental relationship between electricity and the magnetic field it produces, based on the study in 1820 by French scientists Jean-Baptiste Biot and Félix Savart. In physics, especially electromagnetism, the Biot-Savart law is a mathematical equation that describes a magnetic field produced by a uniform electric current.  It associates

Electromagnetism is a physics branch that deals with the study of electromagnetic forces. It is a type of interaction that occurs between particles that are electrically charged in nature. Electromagnetic fields are composed of electric fields and magnetic fields, and together they produce what is known as electromagnetic force, and the connection between both fields

Ampere

According to ampere’s law the magnetic fields are related to the electric current created in them. The law specifies the magnetic field associated with a particular current or vice versa, as long as the electric field remains constant. The magnetic field produced by an electric current is proportional to its size, with a proportionality constant

Biot-Savart Law

Introduction: Electromagnetic fields are composed of electric fields and magnetic fields, and together they produce what is known as electromagnetic fields. The connection between both fields is known as Biot- Savart Law. Jean-Baptiste Biot and Felix Savart were the first scientists to develop a theory that there is a relationship between electric fields and magnetic
