  2. Lorentz force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_force

    Lorentz force acting on fast-moving charged particles in a bubble chamber.Positive and negative charge trajectories curve in opposite directions. In physics, specifically in electromagnetism, the Lorentz force law is the combination of electric and magnetic force on a point charge due to electromagnetic fields.

  3. Electron mobility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_mobility

    The resulting Lorentz force will accelerate the electrons (n-type materials) or holes (p-type materials) in the (−y) direction, according to the right hand rule and set up an electric field ξ y. As a result there is a voltage across the sample, which can be measured with a high-impedance voltmeter.

  4. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    The force it then exerts on the string from which it hangs would be 10 newtons minus the 3 newtons of buoyant force: 10 − 3 = 7 newtons. Buoyancy reduces the apparent weight of objects that have sunk completely to the sea-floor. It is generally easier to lift an object through the water than it is to pull it out of the water.

  5. Electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_field

    In the frame of reference where the laboratory is at rest, the wire is motionless and electrically neutral: the current, composed of negatively charged electrons, moves against a background of positively charged ions, and the densities of positive and negative charges cancel each other out.

  6. Neutral buoyancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_buoyancy

    Neutral buoyancy occurs when an object's average density is equal to the density of the fluid in which it is immersed, resulting in the buoyant force balancing the force of gravity that would otherwise cause the object to sink (if the body's density is greater than the density of the fluid in which it is immersed) or rise (if it is less).

  7. Buoyancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyancy

    The force it then exerts on the string from which it hangs would be 10 newtons minus the 3 newtons of buoyancy force: 10 − 3 = 7 newtons. Buoyancy reduces the apparent weight of objects that have sunk completely to the sea floor. It is generally easier to lift an object up through the water than it is to pull it out of the water.

  8. Neutral buoyancy simulation as a training aid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_buoyancy...

    The vector of any force is similar, if not exactly the same in EVA and in neutral buoyancy. The magnitude of the force, if static, is very similar and if dynamic is still similar although the force and vector used in moving large objects must be carefully studied and planned to make the simulation realistic.

  9. Electron scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_scattering

    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 particle which might be traveling near the speed of light (relativistic form of the Lorentz ...
