    Apparent contradiction: Two charges moving parallel to each other

    Could you be more specific in your answer? Do they experience magnetic attraction or not? We seem to agree that coulomb's law constant should stay the same in al inertial frames of reference. Now the situation I described in my last post where I put myself in the inertial frame of the charges it...

    Apparent contradiction: Two charges moving parallel to each other

    Ok I didn't think of this before but it really doesn't matter f the magnetic force is weaker than the electric force, what is important is that it isn't zero, and it is acting against the electrostatic repulsion. This would mean that if you out yourself in the rame of reference of one of the...

    Apparent contradiction: Two charges moving parallel to each other

    jtbell: In the first situation there is a magnetic force and the electric force, If you make them go fast enough you can make the magnetic force be bigger than the electric force, in this case they will come closer until the electric repulsion is equal to the magnetic attraction. In the frame of...

    Apparent contradiction: Two charges moving parallel to each other

    Hello I need help with a problem: If I see two identical charges moving in the same direction parallel to each other with the same constant velocity, my intuition tells me that the magnetic field generated by their movemente will cause them to attract much like what happensa with two wires with...
