It just does. Electricity and magnetism turns out to be two sides of the same force, called electromagnetism, and either easily converts to the other.

When you change the electric current through a material (or accelerate a charged particle), you get a magnetic field as a side effect. We use this to make electromagnets.

When you change a magnetic field, you get an electric field as a side effect. We use this to make electricity generators.

When electric charge accelerates it produces electric field and magnetic field perpendicular to each other and since the charge is accelerating the fields produced are perpendicular to the direction of charge accelerating and this is nothing but we name electromagnetic waves.

During electromagnetic blank a changing magnetic field can produce an electric charge?

RADIATION


If a stationary electron sat inside a stationary magnetic field would the magnetic field cause the electron to move?

Stationary charge don't produce a magnetic field. because it has no velocity in it, without flow of electron we can't find electricity and for that we have no magnetic field for a stationary charge. It produce only electric field.


energy produced by vibrations of electrically charged particles?

The vibration of electrically charged particles produces a type of energy known as electromagnetic radiation.


How can charge be produce?

Electrical charge can be produced from an electromagnet. This is a core i.e. iron wrapped in a wire coil. A magnetic device then passing by can cause an electrical charge to be produced, typically AC (alternating current).


What is the South Pole's magnetic charge?

The location we call 'Magnetic South' is a magnetic north pole. We do not use the term 'charge' to refer to magnetic poles.

What can produce electromagnetic waves?

When a charge is stationary then an electric field exists. If that charge moves uniformly in space then magnetic field arises around the direction of movement of that charge. If the same charge gets accelerated then electromagnetic disturbance is produced in the space. So any charge oscillating or moving in a curved path would produce electromagnetic disturbance. Such a disturbance is known as electromagnetic waves.

What are electromagnetic oscillators?

when a charge oscillates for example in a capacitor it produce an electric field; which in turns produce a magnetic field in an inductance. the magnetic field oscillates perpendicular to the electric field and an electromagnetic waves perpendicular to both is produced.
