Real-Life Appliances of Magnetism How is magnetism integrated into our daily lives? Well, a person might not notice, but some of the things a person conducts daily integrate the use of magnetism. Though these processes might seem complicated, they are very simple to understand. They help humans in several ways by making their life easier. It may even come to the point where our lives depend on it because like math one factor can effect the whole equation, which is similar to this case. Thus, magnetism carries out numerous daily life appliances, makes life unchallenging, and is a factor that helps humans survive. One of the major and most known machinery that uses magnetism is a compass. Initially, the compass functions due to the fact that …show more content…
Even tape recorders use magnetism. Primarily, there is sound that comes through a microphone in the shape of alternating current. With this, the strength of the current affects the recording head where there is magnetic field that surrounds the part by which the tape is being recorded. Higher sounds produce stronger magnetic fields, and lower sounds are the opposite, as they produce smaller magnetic fields. In the end, the information is embedded into the CD with magnetic alignment. When a person wants to erase the tape, there is an electromagnetic operator that simply messes around with the magnetic …show more content…
The Earth’s magnetic field is like a border that protects us from any dangerous rays such as ultraviolet rays. Initially, space wind brings on extremely dangerous rays from either the sun or even other stars. However, luckily there is the magnetic field of Earth that is countering all of these dangerous rays. Hence, this might be a very positive aspect, yet statistics show that the Earth’s magnetic field is rapidly decreasing and could cause a disaster. Some scientists believe that since Mars’ magnetic field declined, all of its old seas and environment heated up and destroyed it all. Planet Mars became a deserted planet. Some scientists have conducted research to try to understand this phenomenon to assure survival. What they found is that the Earth’s magnetic field is reversing and when it goes through this process, its magnetic field decreases drastically. This could cause a new “disaster” or something humans have never experienced in their long history. The question stays, will we
In the twentieth century the medical field has seen many changes. One way that hospitals and nursing specifically has changed and implemented the changes is by pursuing accreditations, awards, and recognitions. The purpose of this paper is to understand Magnet Status and the change required by hospitals to achieve it.
The effect of Magnet designation in health care institute. The health care industry is working hard more than ever to get excellence in patient care. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the importance and influence of Magnet designation on health care.
For hospitals to reach their peak in the healthcare world they must work to achieve a prestigious credential by the American Nurse's Credentialing Center ( Truth about nursing). In order to receive such a credential, hospitals must fulfill a set of criteria that will take a lot of work and reform within the hospital itself. To receive magnet status hospitals have to express the fourteen forces of magnetism along with the strict list of requirements (Flores, 2007). Magnet status along with everything has its benefits along with its problems. This credential has been researched in depth, and some research feels that certain thing should be changed in order for magnet hospitals to be the best they can possible be. Lastly, there is no doubt that magnet status is of great value because of how it transforms hospitals from great to greater.
The Magnet Recognition Program was initially developed to attract and maintain nursing staff. According to American Nurses Credentialing Center’s (ANCC) web site, the program “was developed by the ANCC to recognize health care organizations that provide nursing excellence. The program also provides a vehicle for disseminating successful nursing practices and strategies.” Nursing administration continues to have an integral role associated with the demonstration of excellence in achieving the highest honor of nursing distinction. The exploration of force one, quality of nursing leadership, continues to be the foundation of magnet recognition.
The first compasses in Han dynasty China were made of lodestone, a naturally magnetized ore of iron. The compass was later used for navigation by the Song Dynasty. Later compasses were made of iron needles, magnetized by striking them with a lodestone. Dry compasses begin appearing around 1300 in Medieval Europe. This was supplanted in the early 20th century by the liquid-filled magnetic compass.A number of ancient cultures used lodestones, suspended so they could turn, as magnetic compasses for navigation. Early mechanical compasses are referenced in written records of the Chinese, who began using it for navigation sometime between the 9th and 11th century, "some time before 1050, possibly as early as 850." A common theory by historians, suggests
training. Improve work environment also contributes to financial benefits with lower injuries to nurses such as needle sticks and back injuries. Magnet organizations have to outperform national benchmarks on nurse sensitive indicators such as falls, hospital acquired pressure ulcers, central line associated blood stream infection, catheter associated urinary tract infections, and ventilator associated pneumonia, to achieve Magnet designation and to maintain it. Decrease in hospital acquire preventable incidences equates to less rejected insurance reimbursement.
Magnetism is very useful in our daily life. A magnetic field is a mathematical description of the magnetic influence of electric currents and magnetic materials. In addition, magnetic field is a region which a magnetic material experiences a force as the result of the presence of a magnet or a current carrying conductor. Current carrying conductors also known as wire. As we know there have north pole and south pole of a magnet. If same pole of magnet approaches each other, there will repel each other. In contrast, if different pole of magnet approaches each other, they will attract. These are same with the electric charge, if same charge it will repel, different charge it will attract. Although magnets and magnetism were known much earlier, the study of magnetic fields began in 1269 when French scholar Petrus Peregrinus de Maricourt mapped out the magnetic field on the surface of a spherical magnet using iron needles [search from Wikipedia]. Noting that the resulting field lines crossed at two points he named those points 'poles' in analogy to Earth's poles. Each magnet has its own magnetic field which experiences a force as the result of the presence of a magnet and magnetic field has made up of magnetic field lines. The properties of magnetic field lines is it begin at the north pole and end at the south pole. The north pole always flow out while south pole always flow in. The closer the magnetic field lines, the strength of magnetic field increases. Furthermore, these line cannot cross each other. Ferromagnetism is the basic mechanism by which certain materials (such as iron) form permanent magnets, or are attracted to magnets. Ferromagnetic materials...
During the late 1970's, the world of diagnostic imaging changed drastically due to the introduction of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, also known as MRI. For over 30 years, they have grown to become one of the most significant imaging modalities found in the hospitals and clinics ("EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES AND FACULTY INFORMATION"). During its ancient days, these machines were referred to as NMRI machines or, “Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging.” The term “nuclear” comes from the fact that the machine has the capability of imaging an atom's nucleus. Eventually, the term was dropped and replaced with just MRI, because “nuclear” did not sit well with the public view ("EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES AND FACULTY INFORMATION"). Many people interpreted the machine to produce an excess amount of radiation in comparison to the traditional X-ray machine. What many of them were unaware of, MRI does not disperse a single ounce of ionizing radiation making it one of the safest diagnostic imaging machine available to this date. MRI machines actually use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce high quality images consisting of precise details that cannot be seen on CT (Computed Tomography) or X-ray. The MRI magnet is capable of fabricating large and stable magnetic fields making it the most important and biggest component of MRI. The magnet in an MRI machine is measured on a unit called Tesla. While regular magnets commonly use a unit called gauss (1 Tesla = 10,000 gauss). Compared to Earth's magnetic field (0.5 gauss), the magnet in MRI is about 0.5 to 3.0 tesla range meaning it is immensely strong. The powerful magnetic fields of the machine has the ability to pull on any iron-containing objects and may cause them to abruptly move with great for...
The first time we know about magnets was in 1269, when a soldier named Peter Peregrinus, wrote a letter about everything that was known at that time about a stone called magnetite. It is reported that he was writing this when he was guarding the walls of Lucera, a small town in Italy. It is also reported that, “While people insi...
Temperature has a large effect on particles. Heat makes particles energized causing them to spread out and bounce around. Inversely the cold causes particles to clump together and become denser. These changes greatly F magnetic the state of substances and can also influence the strength of magnetic fields. This is because it can alter the flow of electrons through the magnet.
The Earth’s magnetic field is a major component to exploring the earth. The north and the south poles have always been a guide for travelers. Using compasses, the direction of the north pole and the south pole has always been provided by the magnetic force of the magnetic field. What many people do not know though is the earth’s magnetic field provides way more than that. The magnetic field, also known as the magnetosphere, protects us from all kinds of harmful substances. Some of these substances include solar wind and harmful radiation from the sun. The magnetosphere also protects the atmosphere, which protects us.
Faraday visualized a magnetic field as composed of many lines of induction, along which a small magnetic compass would point. The aggregate of the lines intersecting a given area is called the magnetic flux. Faraday attributed the electrical effects to a changing magnetic flux.
Faraday built two devices to produce what he called electromagnetic rotation: that is a continuous circular motion from the circular magnetic force around a wire. Ten years later, in 1831, he began his great series of experiments in which he discovered electromagnetic induction. These experiments form the basis of modern electromagnetic technology.
The various types of magnets are used in countless facets in everyday life. Thousands of industries, including automotive, electronics, aerospace, craft, manufacturing, printing, therapeutic and mining utilise magnets so that their machineries, tools and equipment can properly function.
In real life situations, there are many applications of physics. Physics is applied in almost everything we do and everything around us from household chores, in school and in
