1 Developing the Force on a moving charge April 20, 2011

2 The equation |F| = |q| v B sin (φ) F = |q|v x B For the direction, you use the left-hand rule (for negative particles) or the right-hand rule (for positive particles) The SI unit of the B-field is tesla [T] = V s m -2 1 T is a very strong field (the strongest permanent magnet is only ~5 T)

3 “The cross-product is weird.”

4 Nikola Tesla, Mad Scientist (His eyes follow you) Some of Tesla’s inventions Alternating current (AC) Induction Motor Wireless Energy Transmission (Tesla Effect) Radio (before Marconi)

5 Not Nikola Tesla The Tesla Roadster, an all electric sports car
