Savart's Cup and Resonator Felix Savart (1791-1841) is probably best known for his 1820 investigation (with Biot) of the strength of a magnetic field as a function of the geometry of a wire and the current through it. But, most of his research dealt with acoustics, including the first explanation of the operation of a violin. The edge of the cup or bell of Savart's apparatus is set into oscillation with a violin bow to produce a sound of definite pitch. The sliding piston of the resonator is then moved in and out to give the maximum amplitude of sound. Note that the relatively large diameter of the resonator gives large end corrections; the wavelength of the resonant wavelength is larger than four times the interior depth. The Union apparatus is by the Paris firm of Lerebours et Secretan, and is listed at 400 francs in the 1853 catalogue.

Magnetic and Electric Fields Magnetic Overview Magnetic Fields Magnetic Fields 2 MonoPole Magnets ... Bibliography T he relationship between magnetism and electricity is very close. This page is dedicated to how magnetism and electricity interact in fields but before we discuss that I feel it is important to know a little bit about the electromagnetic force. According to this physics page "[the electromagnetic force] one of the four fundamental forces the electromagnetic force manifests itself through the forces between charges (Coulomb's Law) and the magnetic force, both of which are summarized in the Lorentz force law." The lorentz force is is given by this equation: (Images Courtesy of http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/magnetic/magfor.html#c2) Below is the explanation of the variables. Now that we know how closely related the electric and magnetic forces are it is appropriate to discuss further the interaction between electricity and magnetism in fields. The first interaction is a magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire. This situation acts similar to the situation of a charged particle moving through a magnetic field. There is a force on the wire. It is simply a collection of charges in motion. "Hence the resultant force exerted by the field on the wire is the vector sum of the individual forces exerted on all the charged particles making up the current" (Serway). The total Magnetic force on a wire is equal to the current(I) times L(length of wire) cross B(magnetic field). If we have a closed current loop the net magnetic force acting on it is 0. The magnetic field of an electric current is shown below in a picture:

Chapter 8 Sources of Magnetic Field Magnetic Field of Moving Charges Magnetic Field for a Single Moving Charge In keeping with our previous statement about the association of charges acted upon by fields and the fields produced by those charges, it is only natural to think that, once it is established that magnetic fields act on moving electric charges, then moving electric charges should create magnetic fields. In fact, experiment shows just such a relationship! The symmetry inherent in nature between fields and charges is therefore upheld. We find that a single moving point charge q which has constant velocity v in a vacuum produces a magnetic field B m p q v r r Note the introduction of a new fundamental constant of nature, m , the permeability of free space . We define the value of m as being m p /C p So, if m is a constant of nature, why is it defined rather than measured as other constants have been? The reason lies in what was historically recognized as a curious relationship between the permittivity and the permeability of free space. Namely, their product is the inverse of the square of the speed of light, i.e. c e m The reason for this amazing correspondence will be explained later in the semester. For now, we take it that it is useful to define the value of c and hence after measuring

39. Antique Radio JeanBaptiste BIOT (1774-1862) and felix savart (1791-1841) French physicists, establishedin 1820, a means to measure the strength of a magnetic field created http://perso.club-internet.fr/dspt/antiqueA.htm

History The development of the Radio was the culmination of a long process bringing together the fundamentals of theoretical physics and the experiments of a few, exceptional, engineers. The story starts at the end of the 17th century, a time when the learned and the wise sought to understand and explain the mysteries of the universe and to answer the question, 'What is light?' Science, at that time, was primarily interested in astronomy and all things optical... ... but some researchers were already experimenting with magnetism. The first machines were developed to carry out experiments based on static electricity, allowing the experimenters to become familiar with new and spectacular phenomena, such as disruptive discharges, 'electric wind' and the ionisation of gas, by flame. The English doctor, William GILBERT (1544-1603), Royal Physician to Queen Elizabeth I and to James I, was the first to propose the idea that the earth is an enormous magnet, and that all matter is either isolating ('nonelectrics') or conducting (electrics).

Carleen Maley Hutchins Work With Saunders In 1949, the same year that Hutchins began her study as a luthier, Helen Rice introduced her to Frederick A. Saunders (1875-1963), a retired Harvard physicist who had been conducting research on violin acoustics since the early 1930s. Best known for the Russell-Saunders coupling (a principle of atomic spectroscopy), Saunders had been chair of the physics department at Harvard, a fellow of the National Academy of Sciences, and one-time president of the Acoustical Society of America. An amateur violinist and violist, he tried her viola and said that he would look forward to seeing her next one. At that point, Hutchins insists, she had no intention of making another. After speaking with Saunders and reading some of his articles, Hutchins realized how she could help him: [FN 14] ...the only thing he'd ever been able to do was to work with musicians who came with the instruments as they were. He didn't dare change anything except to maybe take a little bit of wax and put a penny, or a little bit of weight on the bridge... What Hutchins offered was to build instruments on which Saunders could make actual changes, like the position and size of the f-holes or height of the ribs. Evidence of this joint work is found in the many surviving letters from Saunders to Hutchins.
