Magnetic field strength, symbol
B
, unit tesla (T)
Magnetic flux
, symbol Φ, unit webber (
Wb
)
Strength (B) is defined as the
magnetic flux density.
The
increase
in the n.o.
mag. field lines
per
unit area
means a
stronger field.
magnetic flux
-> Φ = B x A
magnetic field strength -> B = Φ/A
Area, symbol

Mag. flux is defined as the total number of mag. field lines passing through any surface or
conductor
Flux = mag. field lines
Max
flux when fields lines are perpendicular
Zero when
parallel
Current, symbol
I
, unit amps (A)
length of wire in the field, symbol
