right, but if we take it in term of force, than acceleration,
integrating once then we get speed and a constant
Force is not acceleration. They can be related in some/many cases by the equations of motion, but they are not the same. "Integrating" force does not give speed. In Newtonian mechanics:
\integral f . dl = work {f and dl are 3-vectors}
\integral f dt = impulse
And, of course, the magnetic field is not force, either.
is it wrong to associate a speed ta tha pathlines of
tha magnetic field?
The magnetic field has no "pathlines", and the magnetic field has no "speed".
