ABSTRACT

A magnetic field may be represented by lines of induction. The magnetic flux is proportional to the total number of lines. Note: not lines of force

The number of flux lines per unit cross-sectional area is a description of the magnetic field and is called the magnetic induction B

perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B. 2. A force F = qvB is

exerted on the particle downwards.
