Introduction - Electricity and Magnetism


Introduction





    Electricity and magnetism: two essential elements in physics that have everyday presence and importance. Their application goes from powering technological devices like the refrigerator  to MRI machines that generate detailed medical images. By definition, electricity is a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current. Magnetism is a type of physical incident that includes the attraction for iron observed in a magnet, are attached with moving electricity, are exhibited by both magnets and electric currents, and are characterized by fields of force. 


    Electricity involves the animation of charged particles, such as electrons, which are the basis of electric current. It is the flow of these charged particles through conductors like copper wires that powers various devices. On the other hand, magnetism is the interaction between moving charges, where magnetic fields are generated. Unlike gravity, which only attracts, magnetism involves two types of charges: opposite charges attract and like charges repel. This is a subject I  strongly exhort readers to do a thorough research about, by visiting the other posts related in my blog. Its day-to-day appliances to our lives, provided as examples, will definitely amplify their understanding about the topic.
