Lorentz Force Full

Definition: The Lorentz force is the total electromagnetic force exerted on a point charge by electric and magnetic fields.
Electric Component: $F_{e} = q E$ , which acts in the direction of the field for a positive charge.
Magnetic Component: $F_{m} = q (v \times B)$ , which acts perpendicular to both velocity and the field.
Unified Expression: $F_{t o t a l} = F_{e} + F_{m} = q E + q (v \times B)$ .
Factor out $q$ : $F = q (E + v \times B)$ .
