Magnetostatics: Applications and Laplace's Force

This lecture covers the applications of the Lorentz force, including the operation of a cyclotron and the Hall effect. It also explores the applications of Laplace's force in devices like galvanometers and electric motors. The lecture delves into the principles behind these devices, such as the interaction between magnetic fields and electric currents, leading to the rotation of components. Additionally, it discusses the concept of magnetic dipoles and the behavior of magnets in different configurations. The session concludes with practical experiments demonstrating the operation of a simple electric motor.
