How does EM induction and the motor effect work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1) How is the Lorentz force law derived? (2) For the motor effect, is a fair explanation that the moving electrons experience a force downwards due to a magnetic force, and push the wire down with them due to EM repulsion between them and the metal atoms? (3) For EM induction, why is there a dB/dt term if there is not in the Lorentz force law? I am confused intuitively about it; I understand what happens, but not why above the level of rote.

OpenStudy (masumanwar):

induced emf was first suggested by Michel Faraday and by applying circuit for close loop using inductor and applying dc or ac voltage we can measure induced emf

OpenStudy (shamim):

lorentz force law is \[F=qE+q(v \times B)\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

here q= charge F=force and its a vector E=electric field and its a vector v=velocity of charge q and its a vector B= magnetic field and its vector

OpenStudy (shamim):

if in any place both electric field E and magnetic field B present then this lorentz force law will b applied

OpenStudy (shamim):

Lorentz force law can b writen as\[F=q(E+v \times B)\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

ur question 2 is not clear to me

OpenStudy (shamim):

now i wanna talk abt ur question 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not the derivation, it's just a statement of the law.
