What Magnetic flux means
This equation relates fundamental physical quantities. Every time physicists apply this formula, they're building on a breakthrough that transformed how we understand reality.
Deep dive: Magnetic flux
Φ = BA cos θ
In physics, specifically electromagnetism, the magnetic flux through a surface is the surface integral of the normal component of the magnetic field B over that surface. It is usually denoted Φ or ΦB. The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber (Wb; in derived units, volt–seconds or V⋅s), and the CGS unit is the maxwell. Magnetic flux is usually measured with a fluxmeter, which contains measuring coils, and it calculates the magnetic flux from the change of voltage on the coils.
