Re: mag. force on wire?




Another question: HOw can the Hall effect distinguish
hole-flow (P's) from 'N's in a semi-conductor when in
either it is electrons that are actually flowing?
^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^

You mustn't 'reify' the electrons. 'Holes' are just as 'real'. (at
least in a solid)


This is, of course, reifying the 'Holes'. ;-)
