The magnetomotive force (mmf) along a curve is defined as the path integral of the projection of the magnetic induction along the curve,
Ampere's Circuital Law states that the magnetomotive force along a closed curve (loop) is proportional to the electric current crossing ANY surface whose frontier is this loop. The proportionality constant is called magnetic permeability of the vacuum ().
The positive direction of the current is associated to the path followed on the loop through the right-handed corkscrew rule.
