Magnetic field by that loop. Ampère's law is always valid for steady currents and can be used to calculate the -field for certain highly symmetric situations such as an infinite wire or an infinite solenoid. In a modified form that accounts for time varying electric fields, Ampère's law is one of four Maxwell's equations that describe electricity and magnetism. A charged particle moving in a -field experiences a "sideways" force that is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field, the component of the velocity that is perpendicular to the magnetic field and the charge of the particle. This force is known
Magnetic detector antenna ("A") is received by a tuner ("not shown") and passed through the excitation coil "C", the other end of which is connected to ground ("E"). The rapidly reversing magnetic field from the coil exceeds the coercivity "H" and cancels the hysteresis of the iron, causing the magnetization change to suddenly move up the wire to the center, between the magnets, where the field reverses. This had an effect similar to thrusting a magnet into the coil, causing the magnetic flux through the pickup coil "D" to change, inducing a current pulse in the pickup coil. The audio pickup coil
