electricity and magnetism
Electricity is the flow of electric charge, typically carried by electrons in a conductor like a wire. It powers our homes, devices, and appliances, enabling everything from lighting to communication. The movement of these charges creates an electric current, which can be harnessed for various applications.
Magnetism is a force that arises from the motion of electric charges, particularly in magnets and electric currents. It can attract or repel certain materials, such as iron. Electricity and magnetism are interconnected, forming the basis of electromagnetism, which explains how electric currents can produce magnetic fields and vice versa.
