Two moving charged particles exert forces on each other because each creates a magnetic field that acts
on the other. These two "Lorentz" forces are proportional to vix (2 xr) and 2 x (vi x-r), where is the vector
between the particle positions. Show that these two forces are equal and opposite in accordance with Newton's third
law if and only if rx (vi × 2) = 0.

During the one-armed maneuver first developed in the 1940s, the outstretched arm of the male skater must apply a large force to support a significant fraction of the female skater's weight and also to provide her centripetal acceleration. This force represents a danger to the structure of the wrist of the male skater.

This slide was unique for its time due to the fact that a large number of small wheels along its length made friction negligible.
