Hey y'all
Can anyone just tell me every detail about Lorentz forces ? I have a pretty good idea, but i want to surprise everyone in the presentation that i am about to give, so please just tell me whatever detail you know . Every single detail might be helpful .
Also , if anyone knows how to make a program to describe it can kindly tell me. It would be a great help .

I know that when a charge goes through a medium having both electric and magnetic fields , it experiences forces offered by both of 'em. And the sum of these electromagnetic forces is called lorentz force.
And i know about those cases , where the direction of EF and MF is same and opposite .

Those cases are particularly interesting in relativity. If the electric and magnetic forces are the same magnitude and opposite direction then the force is 0. In relativity the electric and magnetic fields turn into one another but in this case always in a way that maintains the 0 force.

You really need to ask more specific questions. I suggest you post here a draft of the speech you wish to give and ask questions about what you've written.

Also, the level of detail depends on the level of understanding of the audience.
