Ampère's law may refer to either of two laws with his name:
- Ampère's circuital law, which relates the integrated magnetic field around a closed loop to the electric current passing through the loop,
- Ampère's force law, which describes the force of attraction or repulsion between two current-carrying wires, and is the basis for the SI units definition for the unit of current, the ampere. Electromagnetism is the Physics of the Electromagnetic field: a field which exerts a Force on particles that possess the property of In Physics, magnetism is one of the Phenomena by which Materials exert attractive or repulsive Forces on other Materials. Magnetostatics is the study of static Magnetic fields In Electrostatics the charges are stationary whereas here the currents are stationary or dc(direct In Classical electromagnetism, Ampère's circuital law, discovered by André-Marie Ampère, relates the integrated Magnetic field around a closed Electric current is the flow (movement of Electric charge. The SI unit of electric current is the Ampere. In Physics, a magnetic field is a Vector field that permeates space and which can exert a magnetic force on moving Electric charges Magnetic flux, represented by the Greek letter Φ ( Phi) is a measure of quantity of Magnetism, taking into account the strength and the extent of a Magnetic The Biot–Savart Law is an equation in electromagnetism that describes the Magnetic field B generated by an Electric current. In Physics, Astronomy, Chemistry, and Electrical engineering, the term magnetic moment of a system (such as a loop of Electric current In Classical electromagnetism, Ampère's circuital law, discovered by André-Marie Ampère, relates the integrated Magnetic field around a closed The force of attraction or repulsion between two current-carrying wires (see Figure 1 is often called Ampère's force law. The ampere, in practice often shortened to amp, (symbol A is a unit of Electric current, or amount of Electric charge per second
