magnetic flux density is denoted by the B symbol
magnetic flux is denoted by the [tex]\phi[/tex] symbol
so why do people use B as if they were referencing to magnetic flux?
"magnetic flux density is a measurable quantity indicating the strength of a field" ...this was stated by a teacher of mine...anyway, is true?
First, magnetic flux density isn't it the same as magnetic induction, i.e. magnetic flux per unit area perpendicular to the magnetic field?
Second, I thought that the strength of a field was denoted by H...
I've been searching throughout the internet and I found different meanings for the same thing which lead me to get more confused.
Best regards
