Forces on moving charges and currents in Magnetic Field
Force on Moving Charges in a Magnetic Field
Learning Goal: To understand the force on a charge moving in a magnetic field.
Magnets exert forces on other magnets even though they are separated by some distance. Usually the force on a
magnet (or piece of magnetized matter) is pictured as the interaction of that magnet with the magnetic field at its
location (the field being generated by other magnets or currents). More fundamentally, the force arises from the
interaction of individual moving charges within a magnet with the local magnetic field. This force is written
, where is the force, is the individual charge (which can be negative), is its velocity, and is the
local magnetic field.
This force is nonintuitive, as it involves the vector product (or cross product) of the vectors and . In the
following questions we assume that the coordinate system being used has the conventional arrangement of the axes,
such that it satisfies
, where , , and are the unit vectors along the respective axes.
Let's go through the right-hand rule. Starting with the generic vector cross-product equation

forefinger of your right hand in the direction of , and point your middle finger in the direction of . Your thumb

Now consider the example of a positive charge moving in the xy plane with velocity
(i.e.,
with magnitude at angle with respect to the x axis). If the local magnetic field is in the +z direction, what is
the direction of the magnetic force acting on the particle?
Hint C.1 Finding the cross product
The direction can be found by any of the usual means of finding the cross product:
1. Use the determinant expression for the cross product. (See your math or physics text.)
2. Use the general definition
,
where any term with the three directions in the normal order of xyz or any cyclical permutation (e.g., yzx or
zxy) has a positive sign, and terms with the other order (xzy, zyx, or yxz) have a negative sign.

There is no magnetic force on a charge moving parallel or antiparallel to the magnetic field. Equivalently, the
magnetic force is proportional to the component of velocity perpendicular to the magnetic field.

the z axis as shown (with the magnetic field still in the +z direction with magnitude ). Find the magnetic force

Electromagnetic Velocity Filter
When a particle with charge moves across a magnetic field of magnitude , it experiences a force to the side. If
the proper electric field is simultaneously applied, the electric force on the charge will be in such a direction as to
cancel the magnetic force with the result that the particle will travel in a straight line. The balancing condition
provides a relationship involving the velocity of the particle. In this problem you will figure out how to arrange
the fields to create this balance and then determine this relationship.
Part A
Consider the arrangement of ion source and electric field plates shown in the figure. The ion source sends particles
with velocity along the positive x axis. They encounter electric field plates
spaced a distance apart that generate a uniform electric field of magnitude
in the +y direction. To cancel the resulting electric force with a magnetic
force, a magnetic field (not shown) must be added in which direction? Using
the right-hand rule, you can see that the positive z axis is directed out of the
screen.

Part A
Find , the electric field inside the cube.
Hint A.1 Net force on charges in a conductor
Electrons in a conductor are more or less free to move within the conductor. As a result electrons in a conductor
placed in an electric field (with no magnetic field present) will move until the electic field that they generate
inside the conductor cancels the applied field (i.e., until the net internal electric field equals zero). In general, the
charges in a conductor move until the net force on them is zero. This happens almost instantaneously in a good
conductor.
In this problem, there is no external electric field but there is a force on the electrons due to the applied magnetic
field. The electrons will thus move in such a way as to create an electric field that will cancel the magnetic force
on them (leaving a net force of zero on the electrons).

ANSWER:
The direction of the electric field stays the same regardless of the sign of the charges that are free to move in the
conductor.
Mathematically, you can see that this must be true since the expression you derived for the electric field is
independent of .
Physically, this is because the force due to the magnetic field changes sign as well and causes positive charges
to move in the
direction (as opposed to pushing negative charges in the
direction). Therefore the result
is always the same: positive charges on the
side and negative charges on the
side. Because the electric
field goes from positive to negative charges will always point in the
direction (given the original
directions of
and ).
Rail Gun
A Rail Gun uses electromagnetic forces to accelerate a projectile to very high velocities. The basic mechanism of
acceleration is relatively simple and can be illustrated in the following example. A metal rod of mass and
electrical resistance rests on parallel horizontal rails (that have negligible electric resistance), which are a distance
apart. The rails are also connected to a voltage source , so a current loop is formed.
The rod begins to move if the externally applied vertical magnetic field in
which the rod is located reaches the value . Assume that the rod has a slightly
flattened bottom so that it slides instead of rolling. Use for the magnitude of
the acceleration due to gravity.

Mass Spectrometer
J. J. Thomson is best known for his discoveries about the nature of cathode rays. Another important contribution
of his was the invention, together with one of his students, of the mass spectrometer. The ratio of mass to
(positive) charge of an ion may be accurately determined in a mass spectrometer. In essence, the spectrometer
consists of two regions: one that accelerates the ion through a potential and a second that measures its radius of
curvature in a perpendicular magnetic field.

By sending atoms of various elements through a mass spectrometer, Thomson's student, Francis Aston,
discovered that some elements actually contained atoms with several different masses. Atoms of the same
element with different masses can only be explained by the existence of a third subatomic particle in addition to
protons and electrons: the neutron.
Torques on Magnetic Dipoles in Uniform Field
Torque on a Current Loop in a Magnetic Field
Learning Goal: To understand the origin of the torque on a current loop due to the magnetic forces on the
current-carrying wires and to introduce the magnetic moment of the loop .
This problem will show you how to calculate the torgue on a magnetic dipole in a uniform magnetic field. We
start with a rectangular current loop, the shape of which allows us to calculate the Lorentz forces explicitly. Then
we generalize our result. Even if you already know the general formula to solve this problem, you might find it
instructive to discover where it comes from.
Part A

uniform magnetic field in such a way that the sides of length are perpendicular to , and there is an angle

Part A.5 Forces on the parts of the loop that have length
As current is moving through the loop, forces act on its different parts. These result from Lorentz forces on the
charges that move through the wire. What can you say about the forces on the two pieces of wire of length ?
Select the most accurate qualitative description from the following list.
ANSWER:
The forces point away from the center of the loop and cancel each other.
The forces act as a torque about an axis through the midpoints of the two two pieces of length
b and make the loop turn in the direction of positive .
The forces point toward the center of the loop and cancel each other.
Both forces point upward perpendicular to and .
Since the forces on these two parts of the loop cancel out, and their line of action goes through the center of
mass of the loop, we need not consider them in the calculation of the torque on the loop. The key is that the
forces are in line, so their torque contributions about any point cancel.
Express the magnitude of the torque in terms of the given variables. You will need a
trigonomeric function [e.g.,

A DC Motor
A shunt-wound DC motor with the field coils and rotor connected in parallel (see the figure) operates from a 115
DC power line. The resistance of the field windings, , is 235 . The
