Question

state two application of Lorenz force

Answer 1

Hi friend,

Here's your answer,

The Lorentz force is the combination of electric and magnetic force on a point chargedue to electromagnetic fields. A particle of charge q moving with velocity v in the presence of an electric field E and a magnetic field B experiences a force

F = qE + qv × B

(in SI units). Variations on this basic formula describe the magnetic force on a current-carrying wire (sometimes called Laplace force), the electromotive force in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field (an aspect of Faraday's law of induction), and the force on a charged particle which might be traveling near the speed of light (relativisticform of the Lorentz force).

The first derivation of the Lorentz force is commonly attributed to Oliver Heaviside in 1889, although other historians suggest an earlier origin in an 1865 paper by James Clerk Maxwell. Hendrik Lorentz derived it in 1895, a few years after Heaviside.

The Lorentz force occurs in many devices, including:

•Cyclotrons and other circular path particle accelerators
•Mass spectrometers
•Velocity Filters
•Magnetrons
•Lorentz force velocimetry

In its manifestation as the Laplace force on an electric current in a conductor, this force occurs in many devices including:

•Electric motors
•Railguns
•Linear motors
•Loudspeakers
•Magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters
•Electrical generators
•Homopolar generators
•Linear alternators

Hope it helps!!!!
