    attraction for iron; associated with electric currents as well as magnets; characterized by fields of force

GCIDE

  1. magnetic forcenoun

    The force caused by a magnetic field, a force which affects objects having a magnetic field and objects in which a magnetic field can be induced, such as ferromagnetic substances; a magnetic force manifests itself as an attraction for iron. It is associated with electric currents and moving charged paticles as well as permanent magnets.

  1. magnetic force

    In physics (specifically in electromagnetism) the Lorentz force (or electromagnetic force) is the combination of electric and magnetic force on a point charge due to electromagnetic fields. A particle of charge q moving with a velocity v in an electric field E and a magnetic field B experiences a force of (in SI units). It says that the electromagnetic force on a charge q is a combination of a force in the direction of the electric field E proportional to the magnitude of the field and the quantity of charge, and a force at right angles to the magnetic field B and the velocity v of the charge, proportional to the magnitude of the field, the charge, and the velocity. 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 moving charged particle.Historians suggest that the law is implicit in a paper by James Clerk Maxwell, published in 1865. Hendrik Lorentz arrived at a complete derivation in 1895, identifying the contribution of the electric force a few years after Oliver Heaviside correctly identified the contribution of the magnetic force.

  1. magnetic force

    Magnetic force, also known as Lorentz force, is a force that comes into effect when a charged particle is moving in a magnetic field. This force is responsible for the motion of these particles along a curved path. The direction of the magnetic force is perpendicular to both the direction of the velocity of the charged particle and the magnetic field. The magnitude of the force depends on the strength of the magnetic field, the speed of the particle, and the amount of charge on the particle. It plays a key role in a variety of physical phenomena such as the functioning of electric motors and the behavior of compass needles.

The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Magnetic Force

    The forces of attraction and repulsion exercised by a magnet. By Ampere's theory it is identical with the forces of attraction and repulsion of electric currents.

Examples of magnetic force in a Sentence

  1. Renay Mandel Corren:

    It was not a soundbite parenting experience. None of my parents had a lot of training to be parents themselves. They did the best they could, which was not good at all, when you have a parent who's nontraditional, chaos become part of the picture. But she was a great friend, she was a magnetic force. She may not have had the greatest maternal instinct but she had the ability to transcend any differences.
