<p>Fendt, W.&nbsp; (1999).&nbsp; Lorentz force (simulation).&nbsp; Retrieved on 13 Nov 07 from <a href="http://www.sciencejoywagon.com/physicszone/otherpub/wfendt/lorentzforce.htm" target="_blank">http://www.sciencejoywagon.com/physicszone/otherpub/wfendt/lorentzforce.htm</a></p>
<p>In the simulation, the electrical current flows from positive (+) to negative (-). Notice that the&nbsp;current flows <em>into</em> the screen&nbsp;when the&nbsp;current source is on the left, &nbsp;and <em>out of</em> the screen when the current source is on the right.&nbsp; Change the direction of the current by clicking the "reverse current" button.</p>
<p>The&nbsp;lines of magnetic force flow from north (red) to south (green).&nbsp; You can flip the magnet vertically and change the direction of the magnetic field 180 degrees by clicking the "turn magnet" button.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In response to the magnetic field, the wire carrying the current is displaced either to left, or to the right.&nbsp;</p>
