Magnet Academy: Electromagnetic Deflection in a Cathode Ray Tube, I
Discovering how cathode rays behave in a magnetic field was a big step forward for scientists trying to understand the mysterious phenomenon. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Hall Effect
When a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the flow of current, the field causes resistance in the current. This is the Lorentz force at work, and can be observed well in the Hall effect. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Lorentz Force
Learn about the Lorentz force with the help of this tutorial, in which a wire fashioned into a pendulum moves inside a magnetic field. (Java tutorial)
