Advanced Placement Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism with calculus applications.
MRI machines are a fantastic real-world use of electromagnetism. They use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of your body’s insides.
By manipulating the magnetic properties of atoms in your body, these machines generate signals that computers turn into images—no surgery needed!
The core physics is magnetic fields interacting with moving charges, just like you study in class.
Describing how MRI scans are safer than X-rays for imaging soft tissues.
Explaining why patients with metal implants may not be able to have an MRI.
