Hall voltage


is: the transverse potential difference created by the Hall effect.   [P4.3]

arises: when a current-carrying specimen is placed in a transverse magnetic field.   [P4.3]

is: transverse to the directions of both the magnetic field and the current.   [P4.3]

arises from: the Lorentz force on the current-carrying charged particles.   [P4.3]
