Lorentz force

mathematical expression

Available identifiers

force exerted on a moving electric (point) charge in electromagnetic field (non-relativistic approach), named after Hendrik Lorentz

Defining Formula: $𝑭 = q (𝑬 + 𝒗 \times 𝑩)$
$B$ represents magnetic field
$E$ represents electric field
$F$ represents force acting on a particle
$q$ represents electric charge
$v$ represents particle velocity
