1. Electric field magnitude is E .
2. Magnetic field magnitude is B.
3. Charge density magnitude J.

The influence of a magnetic field produced by one charge on another is what is known as the magnetic force between two moving charges

We can write the electric force and magnetic force equations and equate them since these forces balance each other. Further, using the formula for current density, we can solve it for number density for charge carriers.

Formula:

Electric force on charge q in electric field E.

F_E=qE

Magnetic force on charge q moving with velocity V in field B

$F_B=q\left(V×B\right)$

Charge density

$J=ne{v}_d$

In Hall Effect, electric force and magnetic force balance each other.

We can write the electric force as

$F_E=qE$ …(¾±)

And magnetic force as

$F_B=q\left(v_d×B\right)$

Vis the drift velocity of electrons.

Since V_d and B are perpendicular, we can write

$F_B=q{v}_{d}B$ …(¾±¾±)

Equating equation (i) and (ii), we get

$$\begin{gathered} qE=q{v}_{d}B \\ ∴v_d=\frac{E}{B} \end{gathered}$$

…(iii)Now, current density can be written as

$J=nq{v}_d$

Therefore, number density of charge, n is

$n=\frac{J}{q{v}_d}$

Substituting the value of v_d from equation (iii) in the above equation, we get

$n=\frac{JB}{qE}$
