Changing the amount of magnetic field (known as "flux") through a conductor exerts a force on charged particles (electrons in the wire). A change in magnetic field strength in a region of space induces an electric field which circles the magnetic field lines, surprisingly whether or not there is a conductor there or not. It turns out that magnetism and electricity are inherently linked, they are kind of manifestations of the same thing. If "something" has the property of electric charge, it creates an electric field. If that something moves, it creates a magnetic field.

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 statements describes electromagnetism?
Magnetism can cause electrons to flow, and electricity can make a wire magnetic.
What is magnetism closely related to?
Electricity, magnetism and electricity are two aspects of a single force known as electromagnetism.
When is magnetism lost in an electromagnet?
Magnetism is lost in an electromagnet when the electricity is turned off.
Magnetism and electricity are properties of metals due to their?
structure

What statements describes electromagnetism?

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.

How are magnets and electrical generators related?
Electrical generators have sliding magnets that go back and forth to create mechanical energy in them....and that's why they are related.
What does electricity produce?
magnetism

What is electromagnetic physics?
The study of electricity and magnetism. In physics, electricity and magnetism are one of a kind, that's why we shorten it to electromagnetism.
