How to Calculate and Solve for Magnetic Potential | Magnetic Field
Last Updated on April 12, 2024
The image above represents magnetic potential. To calculate magnetic potential, four essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Magnetic Permeability of Vacuum (μo), Strength of Magnetic Pole (m), Relative Magnetic Permeability (μR) and Seperating Distance (r).
The formula for calculating magnetic potential:
v = μom / 4πμRr
Where:
v = Magnetic Potential
μo = Magnetic Permeability of Vacuum
m = Strength of Magnetic Pole
μR = Relative Magnetic Permeability
r = Separating Distance
Let’s solve an example;
Find the magnetic potential when the magnetic permeability of vaccum is 1.2566371E-6, the strength of magnetic pole is 10, the relative magnetic permeability is 22 and seperating distance is 18.
This implies that;
μo = Magnetic Permeability of Vacuum = 1.2566371E-6
m = Strength of Magnetic Pole = 10
μR = Relative Magnetic Permeability = 22
r = Separating Distance = 18
v = μom / 4πμRr
That is, v = (0.0000012566371)(10) / 4π(22)(18)
v = 0.000012566371000000001 / 4976.282
v = 2.52e-9
Therefore, the magnetic potential is 2.52e-9.
