Best Answer

An electromagnetic device is any device that uses electromagnets to operate. Some examples include: electric motors, electric generators (alternators), speakers, etc. An electromagnet is typically a coil of wire with an electric current running through it which generates a magnetic field according to laws and principles developed by Ampere, Faraday, and Maxwell among others. Electromagnetism was discovered by Oersted in 1820.

Electronic devices are devices which involve the control of the flow of electrons by means of other electrons, rather than by mechanical means. A physical switch, consisting of a piece of metal which touches another piece of metal to pass along a flow of electrons is NOT an electronic device, but rather is an ELECTRICAL device. A TRANSISTOR, in which a small voltage controls a larger flow of electrons, IS an ELECTRONIC device. A vacuum tube is also an ELECTRONIC device, because a small voltage on the grid of the tube controlls a larger current of electicity through the tube.
