➢Electric charges moving with constant speeds cause stationary electric currents and
produce a constant magnetic fields.
➢The amount of charge flow per unit time is defined as steady current.

Magnetic field and Magnetic force
➢In analyses in electromagnetics, it is general to consider a current
element 𝐼𝑑𝑙. A current element 𝐼𝑑𝑙 is an infinitesimal length 𝑑𝑙 of wire
carrying a current I and is a vector quantity.
➢It is found that when a current element 𝐼𝑑𝑙 is placed in an constant
magnetic field of strength 𝐵, then there will be a magnetic force on the
current element, which is perpendicular to both parameters.
