magnetic flux, magnetic flux density and area

Magnetic flux is how strong a magnet is.

Magnetic flux is given the symbol Φ and is measured in units called Webers (Wb).

magnetic flux, magnetic flux density and area

Magnetic flux density is how much magnetism there is in an area

Magnetic flux density is given the symbol B and is measured in units called Teslas (T).

magnetic flux, magnetic flux density and area

FormulaFlux (Φ) = Flux density (B) x area (A)

Φ = BA

Mass and weight

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Mass = 80 kg Mass = 80 kg

Weight = 0 Weight = 80 × gravity

Mass and weight

Gravity on earth = 9.81m/s²

Gravity on moon = 1.62m/s²

Mass and weight

Formula

Weight (N) = mass (kg) x gravity (9.81)
