Not really. You could have both an electric field and a magnetic field occupying the same space at the same time but they wouldn't 'make the definition' of electromagnetic until they began to fluxuate in phase at a harmonized frequency.

Would electromagnetic waves exist if changing magnetic fields could produce electric fields but chaning electric fields could not in turn produce magnetic fields?

no


When electric and fields both exist it is called an electromagnetic?

Not really. You could have both an electric field and a magnetic field occupying the same space at the same time but they wouldn't 'make the definition' of electromagnetic until they began to fluxuate in phase at a harmonized frequency.


When electric and Fields both exist it's called electromagnetic field?

Not really. You could have both an electric field and a magnetic field occupying the same space at the same time but they wouldn't 'make the definition' of electromagnetic until they began to fluxuate in phase at a harmonized frequency.


Do electric and magnetic fields always form closed loops?

Magnetic fields do, because there's no such thing as an isolated magnetic "pole", and a magnetic line always starts and ends at opposite poles of the same magnetized object. But electric fields don't. You can easily have a bundle of isolated positive charge over here and a bundle of isolated negative charge over there, whereupon the lines of the electric field start on one bundle and end on the other bundle. But electric field lines can also exist in closed loops, and they do that in radio waves, where the electromagnetic field propagates with an electric field component and a magnetic field component, and they both form closed loops.


Why the both electric and magnetic field are don't exist in the direction of wave propagation in tem waves?

both E & H fields are having equal amplitudes and opposite directions are canceled out.

Can an electric field exist without a magnetic field?

An electric field can exist even without the presence of a magnetic field. An example of this is a stationary electric field.

When and magnetic fields exist its called an electromagnetic field?

A temporary magnetic field created by a flowing electrical current is an electromagnetic field. Stop the current from flowing, it goes away.


How are magnet fields and electric fields alike?

Both act only on charged particles (ions, protons, or electrons). ?However, an electric field (which generates an ELECTRIC FORCE) acts on a particle in the same direction as the field, given by the equation:F(vector) = q*E(vector)The resulting force vector is in the same direction as the field vector (for positive charges).A magnetic field generates a force ONLY on a MOVING charge, and ONLY if the charge is moving non-parallel to the magnetic field:F(vector) = q*v(vector) x B(vector)Because of the cross-product, the magnetic force is a direction perpendicular to the velocity and magnetic field vectors (use the right hand rule to figure out the direction of magnetic force). ?The particle will still have momentum from its initial velocity, so an applied magnetic field will (pretty much) always make the particle move in a curved path.
