Question

This force names the dual Yang–Mills theory with strong coupling in Montonen-Olive duality. A gravitational analog of this force is often used to explain the frame-dragging caused by rotating objects. The components of this force are the spacelike components of the Faraday tensor. (15[1])What appears to be this force in the observer frame can be derived (-5[1])as a consequence (-5[1])of length contraction of a (*) charge density in a moving particle's rest frame, which is why this force is unified with a counterpart in special relativity. This force can do no work, since the direction of this force (10[1])on a particle is always perpendicular to its motion and equals “q v cross B.” For 10 points, moving charges give rise to what force that is (10[1])combined with electricity in Maxwell’s equations? ■END■ (0[1])

ANSWER: magnetism [or magnetic force; or magnetostatic force; accept gravitomagnetism; accept magnetic field; prompt on B or H or F-sub-B; prompt on electromagnetism or gravitoelectromagnetism; prompt on electric-magnetic duality; prompt on Lorentz force; reject answers that only mention “electricity”]
