How are moving electric charges related to electric and magnetic fields?
Moving electric charges create electromagnetic fields.
What is the difference between positive and negative electric fields?
Positive electric fields attract negative charges while negative electric fields attract positive charges.
What do electric fields start with?
Electric fields start on positive charges and terminate on negative charges..
What type of fields are created by an arrangement of electric charges or a current?
Magnetic fields can be created by charges or the flow of current.
What creates magnetic fields?
Basically moving electric charges will create a magnetic field.

What do electric and magnetic fields contain and transport?
Electric and magnetic fields contain energy and information. They transport this energy and information through space. In the case of electric fields, they are generated by stationary electric charges and transport energy and information by interacting with other charges. Magnetic fields, on the other hand, are generated by moving charges or changing electric fields and also transport energy and information through their interactions with other magnetic fields or moving charges.

Creates a magnetic field?
Both magnetic materials and moving electric charges induce magnetic fields.
Why do magnets work?
Magnetic attraction occurs due to the effect of magnetic fields on electrical currents. An electric current would be the flow of electric charge (positive or negative depending on the amount of electrons present). A magnetic field is produced by moving electrical charges to effect other charges (basically).
Do paired electrons create magnetic fields?
No - magnetism is created by moving electric charges.
Can an electric field be compressed?
Electric fields are similar to magnetic fields, and can be "compressed" by the imposition of other electric or magnetic fields.
What are the four Maxwell's equation?
Gauss's law: Electric charges produce an electric field. Gauss's law for magnetism: There are no magnetic monopoles. Faraday's law: Time-varying magnetic fields produce an electric field. Ampère's law: Steady currents and time-varying electric fields produce a magnetic field.
What is the stationary of electric charge?
There is no such thing.If you mean, what is a stationary electric charge, that is normally called static electricity.
