Current definition?
[edit]I'm not sure if this is the standard defining equation:
Its not clear which entity is doing work:
- "where W is the work which has been made when the magnetic pole has been turned around the wire in a closed loop". (???...)
If the Ampere law "follows almost immediately from this", then it can only mean we need the more standard definition using the H-field:
meaning H is the force F on a unit pole p, analagous to electric field E as force on a unit charge q
so that the work done W on an electric charge due to a field E is:
- ,
Likewise for magenetic poles
- ,
in which case
- "pole strength is the work is done on the magnetic pole around some closed path due to a field H per unit current (in a conductor, say a wire)".
Hence the current definition is redundant, though I suppose it could be mentioned as equivalent using Ampere's law, the definition of work, and the definition of p using H.
Its not sourced anyway (like everything else in the article). I have access to the one piddly book at the bottom, but we need a few more than that. F = q(E+v×B) ⇄ ∑ici 12:34, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
