Bar Magnet

A bar magnet creates a magnetic field, just like many other devices (i.e. a current carrying wire), however, it has a different pattern of magnetic field which we will explore.

== The Main Idea == [edit]

---

The main idea for this topic is to explore how a bar magnet works and the effects that it has on its surroundings.

A Mathematical Model[edit]

---

Due to the fact that an observation location can either be on the axis of the magnet, or off the axis of the magnet, we have to different equations. For an observation location that is on the same axis as the magnet, assuming that the distance from the observation location to the magnet is much greater than the the separation distance of the two poles we find that: [math]\displaystyle{ B = \frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\cdot \frac{2\mu }{r^{3}} }[/math]

If the observation location is not on the axis of the bar magnet, and assuming that the distance from the observation location to the magnet is much greater than the the separation distance of the two poles we conclude that: [math]\displaystyle{ B = \frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\cdot \frac{\mu }{r^{3}} }[/math]

A Computational Model[edit]
