Relativistic Electromagnetism II The relativistic electromagnetic force equation becomes Thankfully we can write this in somewhat simpler terms That is, “classical” E&M force equations hold if we treat the momentum as relativistic, If we dot in the velocity, we get energy transfer Unsurprisingly, we can only get energy changes from electric fields, not (conservative) magnetic fields Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility Operated by JSA for the U.
