When two magnet fields cross each over, they generate a force called Lorentz force. The degree of swing is proportional to the acting force. A rolling cylinder bar demonstrates clearly the force generated.

The purpose of this experiment is to study the magnetic force -created by a magnetic field- on a current carrying wire and bar , which is placed in the magnetic field. In this experiment, you will investigate:
- Lorentz Force
- The effect of the electric current on the magnetic force
The current carrying in a magnetic field wire experiences an upward or downward magnetic force depending on the direction of the current and the direction of the magnetic field. The magnetic force ( F ) on the current carrying wire is perpendicular to both the wire (current direction) and the magnetic field direction between the poles of the magnet. If we represent the segment of a wire with a length of l along the wire in the direction of the current (I ), then the magnetic force ( F ) on this segment can be described mathematically by the vector product:

The current produced by the relative motion of the coil or the magnet is called induced current. The amount of the current produced is function of the magnet pole’s gap and the oscillation of the pendulum. Vernier interface Labquest2, the voltage sensor, and the rotary motion help to establish the relationship between the different parameters.
