They are flip sides of the same coin. A magnet passed back and forth rapidly over iron causes electricity and an electric current passed through a piece of iron causes a magnetic field. magnets also have 2 different sides that are called north and south. if north on one magents and the other magent is north too and you try to put the 2 together with them sides they will repel. repel means to not come together, like go apart from each other. but when south and north is coming together they will not repel but they will atrack to each other . atrack means to come together. like lovers.

All have field forces connected to them. The magnetic field and gravity are permanently on. Gravity was only a repulsive field force at creation. It has been a static field force ever since. Electricity can be used to create a field force to attract or repulse. A magnet only has an attractive field force.

Well, when an electromagnet is turned on, it produces a magnetic field just like a permanent magnet's magnetic field.

The electric field and magnetic field are essentially the same field E = cB related by the constant c.

What is a magnetic field will be produced at some point in space if the electric field at the point?

As far as the electric field is stationary then no magnetic field. But when electric field is moving at a uniform speed then a magnetic field will be produced. This is what we call Lorentz magnetic field.


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.


Which of the following are created by an arrangement of electric charge or a current?

for apex its: a quantum field, a gravitational field


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.


Electric field in total magnetic field?

Electric field and magnetic field are two quite different things, and not necessarily related.


Does light produce both electric and magnetic field?

light exhibit magnetic field but i cant say about electric Field...


Can a changing magnetic field produce a steady electric field?

Not a steady but a moving electric field can be produced by ever changing magnetic field.


How electric current have magnetic effect?

The magnetic force acts only on moving electric charges; A constant electric current produces an unchanging magnetic field and a changing electric current produces a changing magnetic field.


What is an electrical current that produces a magnetic field?

The deflection of a magnetic compass in the presence of an electric current, is evidence that an electric current produces a magnetic field.


What is the classical explanation of a dc electric current in a metallic wave?

A changing magnetic field always produces an electric field, and conversely, a changing electric field always produces a magnetic field. This interaction of electric and magnetic forces gives rise to a condition in space known as an electromagnetic field.


Do electric field causes magnetic field?

Yes.


What is evidence that an electrical current produces a magnetic field?

The deflection of a magnetic compass in the presence of an electric current, is evidence that an electric current produces a magnetic field.
