Hall effect:

• Under this situation, the magnetic field exerts a transverse force on the moving charge carriers, which tends to push them to one side of the sample as shown in the Figure 26.01.

• The buildup of the charges at the sides of the sample will eventually balance the magnetic influence, resulting in a measurable voltage difference between the two sides of the conductor. This is called the Hall Effect.

For a simple metal, where there is only one type of charge carrier, the Hall voltage V_H can be computed by setting net Lorentz force to zero.

The transverse components of this equation are
