Flux surface surrounding a charge "q" is "q"/ε. In free space the electric displacement is given by the constitutive relation D = ε E, so for any bounding surface the D-field flux equals the charge "Q" within it. Here the expression "flux of" indicates a mathematical operation and, as can be seen, the result is not necessarily a "flow", since nothing actually flows along electric field lines. The magnetic flux density (magnetic field) having the unit Wb/m (Tesla) is denoted by B, and magnetic flux is defined analogously: with the same notation above. The quantity arises in Faraday's law of induction,
Magnetic tension force as the divergence of the Maxwell tensor: which gives the electromagnetic force density in terms of Maxwell stress tensor, formula_24, and the Poynting vector, formula_25. Now, the magnetic tension is implicitly included inside formula_24. The implication of the above relation is the conservation of momentum. Here, formula_27 is the momentum flux density and plays a role similar to formula_28 in Poynting's theorem. Magnetic tension force The magnetic tension force is a restoring force (SI unit: Pa·m) that acts to straighten bent magnetic field lines. It equals: It is analogous to rubber bands and their restoring force. The force is directed
