- This is not homework.
I want to understand the difference between emf generated due to Lorentz electric and magnetic force.
- Relevant Equations
- F = E.q
F = Bqv sin θ
##E=-N \frac{d\phi}{dt}##
Φ = BA cos θ
Example of emf due to Lorentz magnetic force is motional emf. When rod PQ moves to the left, there will be downwards magnetic force acting on the positive charge in the rod PQ so point Q is at higher potential compared to point P so there will be potential difference (emf) between P and Q
The formula of Lorentz electric force is F = Eq. But I don't understand how this force can create emf. What is the example of emf generated due to Lorenzt electric force?
Thanks
