vector force fields

Gravitational Field - The space around a body within which its gravitational force of attraction is experienced, is called its gravitational field..

The electric field or electric field strength is the electrostatic force acting on a small positive test charge placed at that poin..

Electric Field - The electric field or electric field strength is the electrostatic force acting on a small positive test charge placed at that point. If is the electrostatic force experienced by a test charge q at a point, then the electric fi..

Magnetic field is a region near a magnetised body where magnetic forces can be detected. In a magnetic field, the magnetic dipole (Two equal and oppositely magnetised poles separated by a distance is referred to as magnetic dipole) experiences a turning force..

An electric charge moving in a magnetic field experiences a force. This is called electromagnetic force. It is a combination of electricity and magnetism..

Problems involving constant speed and average speed Newton's First Law of Motion Newton's Second Law of Motion Newton's Third Law of Motion Universal Law of Gravitation Effect of gravity on an object at the surface of the Earth Applying a force to an object perpendicular to ..

A moving charge in a magnetic field experiences forces. An electric current in a conductor is due to drifting of free electrons in a definite direction in the conductor. When such a current carrying conductor is placed in a uniform magnetic field, each free electron ex..

Oersted's experiment shows that a current carrying wire exerts a force on a magnetic needle and deflects it from its usual north-south positio..

Dot Product of Vectors and the Resolution of a Vector - It was mentioned earlier that, displacement vectors are added to displacement vectors, or velocity vectors are added to velocity vectors. Just as it is meaningless to add scalar quant..
