Ordinary matter takes its form as a result of intermolecular forces between individual molecules in matter. Electromagnetism is also the force which holds electrons and protons together inside atoms , which are the building blocks of molecules. This governs the processes involved in chemistry , which arise from interactions between the electrons orbiting atoms. Electromagnetism manifests as both electric fields and magnetic fields . Both fields are simply different aspects of electromagnetism, and hence are intrinsically related. Thus, a changing electric field generates a magnetic field; conversely a changing magnetic field generates an electric field. This effect is called

ISCID Encyclopedia of Science and Philosophy BETA Make Entry Become an Editor Most Popular: ( Help Electromagnetism Electromagnetism is a scientific concept which describes the magnetism that an electric current produces. It is also a branch of physics that is focused on the study of the electromagnetic field produced by the combination of the magnetic field and the electric field that encompass all of space. Electric fields are produced by electric charges that are static, while magnetic fields are produced by electric charges that are in motion. The electromagnetic field exerts a force on electrically charged particles. That force is referred to as the electromagnetic force and is one of the fundamental forces that affect the universe, the other ones being strong nuclear force, weak nuclear force and gravitational force. These forces are the foundation from which any other form of force originates. Electromagnetism gets special mention, however, since it is affects interactions between atoms. Electromagnetism can be traced back to the 17th century, when it was first understood that magnetism and electricity were distinct concepts. But the theory as it is known today was developed over the years of the 19th century, concluding with what is now referred to as classical electromagnetism, guided by the equations referred to as Maxwell’s equations.

Electromagnetism by Ron Kurtus (revised 3 April 2005) electromagnet By wrapping insulated wire around a piece of iron and then running electrical current through the wire, the iron becomes magnetized. This happens because a magnetic field is created around a wire when it has electrical current running through it. Creating a coil of wire concentrates the field. Wrapping the wire around an iron core greatly increases the strength of the magnetic field.

The units used to measure electric fields are newtons per coulomb. Electromagnetism is closely related to both electricity and magnetism because both involve movement of electrons. Electric fields can be drawn as arrows. The arrows point which way a positive particle, like a proton , will be pushed if it's in the field. Negative particles, like electrons , will go in the opposite direction as the arrows. In an electric field, arrows will point away from positive particles, and towards negative ones. So, a proton in an electric field would move away from another proton, or towards an electron. change Magnetic field A magnetic field is a part of the electric field that only exerts a force on moving charges change Electromagnetic field Through electromagnetic induction, a changing magnetic field can produce an electric field.

Hila Science Camp - Technology Projects Electromagnetism Background: A magnet is a device with the ability to attract iron*, cobalt and nickel . One end of a magnet is attracted to the earth's north pole, this end of the magnet is called its north pole . The other end of the magnet is called its south pole . The opposite poles of two magnets attract , the like poles of two magnets repel * (Magnets are attracted to steel because the main component of steel is iron.) Electricity is a flow of atomic particles called electrons . Electrons will flow easily through most metals. Electrons travel from the minus end of a battery and are attracted to the plus end. Electrons traveling through a wire, create a weak magnetic field around the wire. Electrons traveling through wire, coiled around an iron nail cause the nail to become a magnet. This device is called an electromagnet. PROJECT #1: Build an electromagnet The elastic band holds each end of the wire against the battery terminals. Only use a 1.5 volt AA battery with this electromagnet. Only remove the insulating enamel from the last 1 cm of the wire.

Electromagnetism Home Electromagnetic Inertia Have you ever thought “If an electron induces a magnetic field when it moves, and magnetic fields contains energy, where does the energy to create this field come from?” Click here to find out more about Electromagnetic Inertia. Electrostatic Potential Energy The starting point for all electrostatic interactions is that between two point electric charges such as two electrons, or between a positron and an electron. In the 19th century scientists did not understand the interaction, and invented the concept of “potential energy” to provide the force that drove these particles together or apart. It was only when Einstein developed the equivalence of mass and energy that the true source of the energy became apparent. You are probably familiar with the concept that electric fields contain energy and it is the interaction between the fields of the two charges that leads to changes in their energy and hence to the forces between them, energy being simply the integral of force over distance. This paper develops the equations for the interaction at any point in space near the charges, without recourse to “potential energy”.

Electromagnetic four-potential Scientists Ampère Coulomb Faraday Gauss ... e Maxwell's equations are a set of four partial differential equations describing how the electric and magnetic fields relate to their sources, charge density and current density , and how they develop with time. Thus, these equations are of basic importance for the totality of physical and electrotechnical phenomena, concerning the fields of classical electrodynamics, classical optics, and the present radio-, television-, phone-, and information-technologies. The equations are named after the Scottish physicist and mathematician James Clerk Maxwell who first published essentially the same equations in 1861. Individually, the equations are known as Gauss's law Gauss's law for magnetism Faraday's law of induction , and Ampère's law with Maxwell's correction . Often, two equations for the electromagnetic field tensor that give an equivalent relativistic formulation are also called the Maxwell equations. Furthermore, there is also a formulation with one differential two-form and its dual.
