!Ignotum/Formulae/Elct

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

I=current flowing
l=length of wire in field
F=BQv
For a moving charge:
F=force
B=field strength/flux density
Q=charge
v=velocity perpendicular to field
B=u0NI/l
Inside a solenoid (or coil):
B=field strength/flux density
u0=permeability of free space=4PI�10^-7
N=number of turns
I=current flowing, l=length
B=u0I/2PIr
Near a straight wire:
B=field strength/flux density
u0=permeability of free space=4PI�10^-7
I=current flowing
r=radial distance from wire
B=u0NI/2r
In the centre of a circular coil:
B=field strength/flux density
u0=permeability of free space=4PI�10^-7
N=number turns, I=current flowing
r=radius of coil
reluctance=l/u0urA
In a magnetic circuit, where:

L=self inductance
dI/dt=rate of change of current

Es=VpNs/Np
In transformers, where:
Es=emf in secondary
Vp=potential difference across primary
Ns and Np=number of turns in secondary or
primary
IpVp>IsEs
In transformers, where:
Ip and Is=currents in primary/secondary
Vp=potential difference across primary
Es=emf in secondary

Irms=I0/2^�
For alternating current, where:
Irms=root mean square of the current
I0=peak current


2PIf=w=1/(LC)^�
