Magnetic field 'magnetic field' is used to describe as well as or in place of . There are many alternative names for both (see sidebar). In SI units, is measured in teslas (symbol: T) and correspondingly (magnetic flux) is measured in webers (symbol: Wb) so that a flux density of 1 Wb/m is 1 tesla. The SI unit of tesla is equivalent to (newton·second)/(coulomb·metre). In Gaussian-cgs units, is measured in gauss (symbol: G). (The conversion is 1 T = 10000 G.) One nanotesla is equivalent to 1 gamma (symbol: γ). The -field is measured in amperes per metre (A/m) in SI units,
Magnetic reluctance towards regions of higher flux so it is always an attractive force (pull). The reluctance of a uniform magnetic circuit can be calculated as: or where The inverse of reluctance is called "permeance". Its SI derived unit is the henry (the same as the unit of inductance, although the two concepts are distinct). Reluctance can also be applied to: Magnetic reluctance </math>, formula_1, formula_2 Magnetic reluctance, or magnetic resistance, is a concept used in the analysis of magnetic circuits. It is defined as the ratio of magnetomotive force (mmf) to magnetic flux. It represents the opposition to magnetic flux, and
