Magnetism, difference between B, H and M

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on the differences between the magnetic field (B), magnetic field strength (H), and magnetization (M), emphasizing that these are distinct concepts rather than a single equation. Participants critique the lack of depth in responses, urging contributors to reference their textbooks and provide thorough research to support their answers. The importance of demonstrating understanding through problem-solving and showing where difficulties arise is highlighted. Overall, the conversation stresses the need for clarity and rigor in discussing magnetism concepts. Engaging with the material more deeply is essential for a comprehensive understanding of these magnetic properties.

Homework Statement
What's the difference between B, H and M in magnetism?
Relevant Equations
B, H, M
As the homework statement suggests
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What research have you done? What does your textbook say?
B, H, M is a juxtaposition of symbols not a "relevant equation."
"As the homework statement suggests" is not a credible attempt at answering the question.

Please try harder.

Thread 'Help needed with Elliptic Integrals'

I want to find the solution to the integral ##\theta = \int_0^{\theta}\frac{du}{\sqrt{(c-u^2 +2u^3)}}## I can see that ##\frac{d^2u}{d\theta^2} = A +Bu+Cu^2## is a Weierstrass elliptic function, which can be generated from ##\Large(\normalsize\frac{du}{d\theta}\Large)\normalsize^2 = c-u^2 +2u^3## (A = 0, B=-1, C=3) So does this make my integral an elliptic integral? I haven't been able to find a table of integrals anywhere which contains an integral of this form so I'm a bit stuck. TerryW
