The flow of electricity, which is a current of electrons, or simply electron flow, creates a magnetic field around its path of travel. This is a fundamental property of charged particles. Magnetic fields are always present in the vicinity of moving charges, and moving charges always create magnetic fields. One of the four fundamental forces we know in nature is the electromagnetic force. And this is probably one of the best examples of the inseparability of current flow and a magnetic field.

What statements describes electromagnetism?
Magnetism can cause electrons to flow, and electricity can make a wire magnetic.
Why metals good electrical conductors?
In their regular (lattice) structure, metals have a sea of free electrons. This allows the electrons to flow through the metal at will and this is what makes metals good conductors of electricity (and heat).Their mobile electrons
What slows the flow of electrons?
Resistance slows the flow of electrons in a conductor.When you say that a substance has resistance, it actually means that the substance slows down the flow of electrons, thereby reducing the current. So, higher the resistivity of a substance, lesser the velocity of the electrons in the circuit assuming all the other values constant.
Why does electricity not flow in wood?
Dry wood is not a conductor of electricity as there are no free electrons to flow.
What are 3 substances that make electricity?
Electricity is the movement (flow) of electrons from atom to atom.
What does a turbine spin around to make electrons flow in a wire?
Not around... moving THROUGH a magnetic field forces electrons to flow through a wire.
Current and voltage?
The current is the flow of electrons The voltage is the push the power source gives to the electrons to make the current faster. The flow of electrons is electricity HI!! By the way I am amazing! Trust me.
In a circuit electric current is flow of?
It is a flow of electrons.
A path along which electrons can flow?
electrons can flow through circuits.
What refers to the flow of electrons through a wire?
Electricity is the name given to the flow of electrons. Conventionally, the electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive. An individual electron does not make the whole trip instantaneously - an electron moves on to an atom, which then has an excess of charge, and the spare electron is passed on to the next atom, and so on.electrons are charged particles and the flow of these electrons constitute electricity.
What describes electromagnetism?
Magnetism can cause electrons to flow, and electricity can make a wire magnetic.
Air has been removed and electrons flow?
air has been removed and electrons flow
What gives electrons there electricity?
Electrons don't have electricity they only posses energy, Electricity is defined as the flow of electrons! In conductors the flow of valence electrons are called Electricity! therefore inducing a current in it! generally the direction of flow the current is the opposite of the direction of flow of electrons(D.C)!
What is and electrical current?
current electricity is where electrons flow through a conductor.static electricity electrons do not flow
Does an insulator allow the flow of electrons?
Yes . Some insulators do allow the flow of electrons but most do not.
What is electic current?
nucleons have electrons that may leave the orbit if enough EMF is present causing electrons to flow by placement. WHILE ELECTRONS FLOW ONE WAY LACK OF ELECTRONS FLOW THE OTHER WAY
Steady flow of electrons?
elelctric current
