15: Electromagnetic Forces
( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
In this chapter we begin the study of electromagnetism. The forces on charged particles due to electromagnetic fields are introduced and related to the general case of force on a particle by a gauge field. The principles of electric motors and generators are then addressed as an example of such forces in action.
- 15.3: Charged Particle Motion
- We now explore some examples of the motion of charged particles under the influence of electric and magnetic fields.
