Why is a vibrating electric field an example of an electromagnetic wave?
The changing electric field will produce a magnetic field; the changing magnetic field will cause an electric field; both will propagate as a wave - an electro-magnetic wave.
What property of an object that causes it to be affected by a magnetic field?
Charge
What flows through a circuit and causes a magnetic field?
An electric current flowing through a circuit causes a magnetic field. This is due to the movement of electric charges, usually electrons, in the circuit. The magnetic field produced is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow.
Are electromagnetic waves characterized by rarefactions and compressions?
No they are caused by changes in magnetic and electrical fields. When a magnetic field changes it causes an electric field that is perpendicular to it. And vice versa a changing electric field causes a perpendicular magnetic field. These changing fields propagate outwards at the speed of light and are what is meant by an electromagnetic wave.
What is the causes of electromagnetic induction?
Change in magnetic flux.iechange in magnetic field (B).change in the area vector/ area of magnetic field under the closed circuit (A).The angle between area vector and magnetic field .......xomagnetic flux = cosxo . A . B
What is in a vibrating electric and a magnetic field?
they both have a Electromagnetic wave.
What causes Jupiter's magnetic field?
What causes it's magnetic field is the dynamo effect.

What is the leading theory for what causes earth's magnetic field?
The Dynamo Theory it what causes Earth's Magnetic Field
Do electric field causes magnetic field?
Yes.
Where does the convection that causes earths magnetic field?
The convection that causes Earth's magnetic field happens in Earth's molten outer core.
What was James clerk maxwell contributed in electricity?
Maxwell was able to show that light was a vibrating electro-magnetic field.
Can magnets attract objects without touching them?
A magnet has a magnetic field around it. The magnetic field causes a magnetic force that can attract objects to the magnet.
What property of an object that causes it to be affected by a magnetic field?
Charge

How light waves travell through no media?
James Clerk[sic] Maxwell was able to show that an electric field vibrating at a specific frequency would result in a magnetic field vibrating at exactly that same frequency, and that the latter magnetic field would result in an electric field vibrating at the same frequency -- ad infinitem. He was also able to show that this continual vibration would travel away from its starting point at the speed of light -- thus showing that light, at its basic nature, is a vibrating EM field. Experiments showed that pretty much all predictions based on Maxwell's Equations did, indeed, occur -- such as this EM field travelling without any media needed.
