Very interesting query, really. Electric lines of force, of course, imaginary one, if it happens to move relative to an observer then magnetic lines of force, this too totally imaginary, would appear in a perpendicular direction to that of electric lines of force. This is the quality of space, indeed. That is why when an electric charge moves along X direction, then magnetic lines are found to be around the moving charge in a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement of the electric charge. The very movement of electrical charge constitutes the flow of electric current. Thus current flowing the primary of a transformer produces magnetic flux which in turn gets connected with the secondary of it. As the passing current in the primary is of alternating current, then magnetic flux linked with the secondary changes. So induced emf is produced in the secondary.

they both can be used as magnets. also, electricity can produce magnetism and a moving magnet with respect to a wire can produce a current.

How are electricity static electricity and magnetism related?

well in simple terms a static electricity is charge, which is a basic quality of matter , in fact it is as basic as mass. Now, a charge in motion is a current or in other words electricity. And magnetism is a result of the motion of charge. so in a way these all three are related.

When a wire carries an electric current it products a?

It produces a magnetic field. Vice versa, when you run a magnet past a wire you generate an electric current. Electricity and magnetism are related. If you have electricity you can generate magnetism, if you have a magnet you can produce electricity.


What is the difference between magnetism and electricity?

The difference between electricity and magnetism is that you must be in the same frame of reference as the electric field to experience electricity, because all that magnetism is, is electricity moving relative to you.Although they are two different forms of energy, you can use magnetism to create electricity and you can use magnetism to create electricity.Electricity is the flow of energy or current through a metallic substance. Magnetism is the attraction of the metallic molecules in a solid or substance.
