Electromagnetic Formulae and Constants

The speed of light in a vacuum

c = 299,792,458 m/s (~ 186,282.4 miles per second)

Magnetic Field of Solenoids (coils)

B – Magnetic Field
oIo – Magnetic Flux Density
µ0 = 4π x 10-7 Hm-1 – Permittivity of free space
N – Number of turns
a – Area

B=µ0NI
Flux per Turn, oIo = µ0NIπr2
Total Flux, oIo =µ0NIaNl

Coulombs Law
F = k (q1q2 / r2)

Permeability of Free Space
µ0 = 4π x 10-7

Permittivity of Free Space
1/(c2 µ0) =  = 8.85418782 × 10-12

Frequency and Wavelength calculations of EM waves

λ is wavelength 
T is the period

Frequency, f = 1 / T

Velocity, v = f λ

Inductance Calculations

A self inductance of 1 Henry will produce an emf (electromotive force) of 1 Volt when the current (I) changes at a rate of 1A/s
V = -L(dI/dt)

Self Inductance, L = µ0N2la

Mutual Inductance, M = µ0N1N2la = k(L1L2)1/2
The value of coupling coefficient (k) depends upon how much of the flux passes through the coils.

  1. There are lots of types and variables, so the calculations will vary. You can find more info, including some jet engine formulae on the jet engine wiki page.

  2. hey the jet engine thrust formula isn’t here so where is it?
