Force on an ideal magnetic dipole with dipole moment m in
a B-field B is given by
A simple proof of this is to consider a square current loop
with side-length , as shown below

By considering the forces on the
four sides of the square, we can

Consider a rectangular loop with sides
a, b and making an angle with B.
Without loss of generality, let B point
along the z-direction and the loop is
tilted from the z-axis towards the y-axis
by an angle .

Inside matters, there are a lot of tiny currents due to the
electrons orbiting around the nuclei and intrinsic spins.
BmN The torque, , however, is non-zero & tends to align
m in the same direction of B
This effect is called paramagnetism.
What is Paramagnetism?
The scale of these small “current loops” are so small
that the applied B-field can be considered uniform.

For electrons orbiting around nuclei, in addition to the
paramagnetic effect, there is another less significant effect
due to an external B-field.
A full, rigorous treatment of this effect requires
quantum mechanics. Here is a qualitative analysis:
Let the speed of an orbiting electron be v, then the period

Then, in addition to the electric force

there is a magnetic force.

What is Ferromagnetism?
• “Forzen in” magnetic dipoles
• Not due to external fields, but sustained by
interaction between nearby dipoles
• Quantum mechanics Dipoles “like” to
point in the same direction as their
neighbors.
• Emphatically non-linear

Physical Interpretation
of Bound Currents
Magnetic Field in Matters
Consider a small area element on the surface of a magnetized
object with length b and width t.
sint
Consider a very small volume element
as shown above, with length a,
width b and thickness .
The region is so small that M can
be taken as constant.
There are tiny current loops inside the volume due to
magnetization.

Inside the volume, the current at a point due to adjacent loops
cancel each other.
where I is the surface current.
The net result is a current flowing on the surface.
The magnetic dipole moment is therefore
But the net dipole moment must be the same as that of the
total contribution of all the dipoles inside the volume.

Physical Interpretation of volume bound current:
When M is not uniform, the current carried by adjacent
loops cannot cancel each other.
For example, consider the x-component of the currents.
Since Mx is responsible for currents flowing on the plane
parallel to the y-z plane, we need not consider Mx

The argument is similar to that of a solenoid.
Answer:
First, the H field has no radial component.
And the field depends only on s, but not on z and .

In addition, if one considers the
amperian loop 1, it can be shown
that Hz is constant.
However, we know that H = 0 at infinity,
φ̂Therefore, the H field only has the -component.
This is true no matter where the
loop is located, because unlike
the case of a solenoid, the
current is now flowing in the
z-direction and loop 1 always encloses no current.
