\section{Brushless Motor Fundamentals}
\subsubsection{DC Motor Operation}
Torque is generated in DC motors from the magnetic force,
also known as the Lorentz force, which is produced when an
electric current is passed through a coil in a magnetic field.
This force is given by \ref{eq:Force}.
\begin{equation}
F=q[E+(v\times B)]
\label{eq:Force}
\end{equation}
where $F$ is the force perpendicular to the coil,
$E$ is the electric field in the coil,
$v$ is the velocity of the charged particles in the coil,
and $B$ is the magnetic field. From mechanics, torque is
\begin{equation}
\tau=F\times r
\label{eq:Torque}
\end{equation}
\section{Brushless Motor Fundamentals 2}
\subsubsection{DC Motor Operation 2}
If the electrical force in \ref{eq:Force} is ignored,
and the remaining magnetic force is used in \ref{eq:Torque},
with the assumption that $v$ is perpendicular to $B$, we find that
\begin{equation}
\tau=qvBrsin\theta
\label{eq:Magnetic}
\end{equation}
