They are opposite "sides" of the electromagnetic force. A moving magnetic field produces electricity and a moving electric field produces magnetism. Should both move alternately they produce electromagnetic radiation.

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.


What is required for electricity and magnetism?

Electricity is the movement of electrons between atoms. Magnetism only exists around moving electrons.

How do electricity and magnetism produce movement?

Well, electricity and magnetism are not the same. Electricity is the movement of free electrons in a material, while magnetism is a field in space that has direction and magnitude. In fact, you can create electricity with magnetism and motion. and you can make magnetism with electricity and motion. And for your knowledge you can create motion with electricity and magnetism. It is a law of nature, like gravity.


What is magnetism closely related to?

Electricity, magnetism and electricity are two aspects of a single force known as electromagnetism.
