Question : 7 of 30
 
Marks: +1, -0
Write the expression, in a vector form, for the Lorentz magnetic force F→ due to a charge moving the velocity v→ in a magnetic field B→. What is the direction of the magnetic force?
Solution:
The Lorentz force can be determined by the formula,
F=q(v×B)
where q is the charge, v is the velocity and B is the magnetic field density. Lorentz force is Perpendicular to both magnetic field and velocity. The right-hand thumb rule is applicable in determining the Lorentz force.
