If your equation is in vertex form, then the axis of is: x= h in the general vertex form equation y = (x-h)2 + k. If your equation is in standard form, then the formula for the axis of symmetry is: $$ x = \frac {-b}{ 2a} $$ from the general standard form equation $$ y = ax^2 +bx + c $$.
Lesson Summary. All magnetic fields are created by moving charged particles. Stationary charged particles do not generate magnetic fields. An electromagnet is a magnet that relies on an electric current to produce the magnetic field. The simplest electromagnet is simply a wire carrying a current, which generates a magnetic field all around the wire.
An electric current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire, due to Ampere's law (see drawing below). To concentrate the magnetic field, in an electromagnet the wire is wound into a coil with many turns of wire lying side by side.he magnetic field of electromagnets in the general case is given by Ampere's Law : which says that the integral of the magnetizing field H around any closed loop of the field is equal to the sum of the current flowing through the loop.
