why the magnetic field of the electrons is circular instead of triangular? (in conductor with current)
Doc Al said:Why in the world would you think it might be triangular? Consider symmetry.
Doc Al said:No, I'd prefer that you explain why you think it might be triangular.
All your posts seem to be short, broad questions (often the same question repeated) with no background or context given. We have no idea what you know or don't know. You really need to find a textbook and begin at the beginning.
russ_watters said:You just restated the same question and the answer will be the same: why would you think it would be any other shape?
scientist91 said:And why would you think it is circular? And is the magnetic field acting like dipole magnet?

billiards said:I'm fairly sure electrons don't have magnetic fields, they have a charge, and therefore there is a Coulombic attraction. I think what you meant to ask is: why is the potential field surrounding an electron spherical?
Moving electrons do.billiards said:I'm fairly sure electrons don't have magnetic fields...
The magnetic field of electrons is circular because of their spin. Electrons have an intrinsic property called spin, which is a form of angular momentum. This spin causes the electrons to behave like tiny magnets, producing a circular magnetic field around them.
No, the magnetic field of electrons cannot be triangular. This is because the spin of electrons is quantized, meaning it can only have certain specific values. These values correspond to a circular magnetic field and do not allow for a triangular shape.
As mentioned before, the circular magnetic field of electrons is caused by their spin. The spin of the electrons creates a magnetic moment, which in turn produces a circular magnetic field.
Yes, the circular shape of the magnetic field of electrons is a fundamental property. It is a result of the spin of electrons, which is an intrinsic property and cannot be altered or changed.
The circular magnetic field of electrons plays a significant role in their behavior. It is responsible for the interactions between electrons and other particles, such as protons and other electrons. It also plays a crucial role in the formation of chemical bonds and the behavior of materials in magnetic fields.
