Abstract
The characteristics of the motion of a particle in an electrically conducting liquid with constant crossed electric and magnetic fields present have been investigated in connection with the problem of MHD-separation in many papers (for example, see the bibliography in [1]). The separation of electrically conducting particles contained in a dielectric liquid, which can be accomplished with the help of a variable magnetic field [2], is also of practical interest. The ponderomotive force acting on a spherical conducting particle near a straight conductor through which the discharge current of a capacitor bank is flowing is found in this paper, and the motion of a particle in a viscous liquid under the action of this force is investigated.
