Forces between charged particles, energy is coming from nowhere?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a C# program using XNA libraries to simulate the motion of charged particles. The creator is facing issues with the simulation, particularly regarding the parameters for horizontal separation between particles. They emphasize the need to clarify the values and calculations used in the simulation, specifically how the parameter Δx is defined and applied. The mention of energy seemingly coming from nowhere suggests a deeper inquiry into the physics of the simulation. Overall, the focus is on troubleshooting the simulation's mechanics and ensuring accurate representation of charged particle interactions.

So I've created a program in C# with the XNA libraries which is meant to simulate motion between charged particles. I drew a pic to show the problem I'm having and how I'm moving the particle.

You need to show your values and the actual working you used. For instance, the horizontal separation is (1) and (2) are both Δx ... a parameter you give the system. So the only way you get a 2 in there is if you put it there.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
