A current carrying conducting wire is placed in a magnetic field, and hence, accelerates. Assuming the wire is moving in a constant magnetic field, will the electrons change direction due to the field?
If so, would that change the direction of the Lorentz force acting on the conductor?
Will the electrons ''bending'' in such a wire alter the direction of the force acting on the wire?
Best Answer
How are the two forces experienced in practical circumstances?
In an ideal motor or generator (100% efficiency), the change in force would only be directional i.e.,
