Can an object become charged due to magnetic forces
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The magnetic force is a consequence of the electromagnetic force, one of the four fundamental forces of nature, and is caused by the motion of charges. Two objects containing charge with the same direction of motion have a magnetic attraction force between them. Similarly, objects with charge moving in opposite directions have a repulsive force between them.
In our article on magnetic fields we learned how moving charge surrounds itself with a magnetic field. In this context the magnetic force is a force that arises due to interacting magnetic fields.
How to find the magnetic force?
Consider two objects. The magnitude of the magnetic force between them depends on how much charge is in how much motion in each of the two objects and how far apart they are. The direction of the force depends on the relative directions of motion of the charge in each case.
The usual way to go about finding the magnetic force is framed in terms of a fixed amount of charge qqq moving at constant velocity vvv in a uniform magnetic field BBB. If we don't know the magnitude of the magnetic field directly then we can still use this method because it is often possible to calculate the magnetic field based on the distance to a known current.
