Question
The magnetic force depends on v which depends on the inertial frame of reference. Does then the magnetic force differ from inertial frame to frame? Is it reasonable that the net acceleration has a different value in different frames of reference?
Solution
s F = q(v × B),velocity depends on frame of reference. Hence The magnetic force is frame dependent. So, yes the magnetic force differ from inertial frame to frame.
The net acceleration which a rising from this is however, frame independent for inertial frames (non-relativistic physics).
