The Main Idea

The Lorentz Force is the combination of the Electric and Magnetic Forces. Basically the Lorentz Force is applied as a net force on a particle or number of particles when both electric and magnetic fields are present.

A Mathematical Model

[math]\displaystyle{ \vec{F}_{Lorentz} = q\vec{E} + q\vec{v} ⨯ \vec{B} }[/math] where qE is the electric force and qv x B is the magnetic force.
