What is the Force that pushes or pulls magnetic material near a magnet?

Magnetic forces are produced by the motion of charged particles such as electrons. Magnetism is one of the fundamental forces of nature.


What produce by the flow of electric charge from one area to another?

When electric charge flows from one place to another, it induces a magnetic field. The direction of the magnetic field is found by the right hand rule. To use the right hand rule, put your right hand into a fist with your thumb pointed up. When your point your thumb in the direction of the current, and the direction your fingers gives you the direction of the magnetic field.


Who introduced the scientific concept of an electric field?

The concept of the electric field was introduced by the scientist Faraday in the 1800s. Michael Faraday was the inventor for envisioning the scientific concept that electricity created a field of charged energy particles around electric objects.


Why is the location of the magnetic poles important to the survival of many species of animals?

The Earth's magnetic field protects the biosphere from harmful radiation from the sun: particularly charged particles. These the magnetic field forces to turn and travel along the magnetic lines of force where they do at last penetrate the Earth's atmosphere at the magnetic poles. This is the source of the Northern Lights. These locations are therefore locales of high harmful radiation. The fact that they are are currently in high north (and south) means that there isn't too much life there to get harmed by it. If the north magnetic pole were to be in the Amazon Rain Forest we would see a large area where life was adversely affected by the radiation.


What causes electromagnetism?

This is a BIG QUESTION. There are four fundamental forces--Electromagnetism, gravity, the strong and weak atomic forces. These forces are what we were given when this universe was created. There could have been more forces, or fewer. But that's what we have. habeeb_rulz: addition: The electromagnetic force occurs because of the exchange of messenger particlescalled photons and w and z bosons (particles which make up sub atomic particles such as electrons and protons). The exchange of messenger particles between bodies acts to create the perceptual force which attracts or repels the two larger particles such as protons or electrons.

What is the relationship between the strength of the magnetic field and the movement of charged particles within it?

The strength of the magnetic field affects the movement of charged particles within it. A stronger magnetic field will cause the charged particles to move in a more curved path, while a weaker magnetic field will result in less curvature in their movement.


What is the relationship between the magnetic field shape and the behavior of charged particles within it?

The shape of a magnetic field affects the path and motion of charged particles within it. Charged particles tend to move in curved paths within a magnetic field, following the field lines. The strength and direction of the magnetic field determine how the charged particles will behave within it.


What is the relationship between the magnetic field variable and the behavior of charged particles in a magnetic field?

The magnetic field variable affects the behavior of charged particles in a magnetic field by exerting a force on them. This force causes the charged particles to move in a curved path perpendicular to both the magnetic field and the direction of their initial velocity.


DO charged particles have a magnetic field?

if charge particle is in motion ,then it has magnetic field


Can a static magnetic field do positive work on charged particles?

No, a static magnetic field cannot do positive work on charged particles. Magnetic fields can only do work on moving charged particles by changing their directions of motion or causing them to spiral. Static magnetic fields do not affect stationary charged particles.


How does the interaction between magnetic fields and electric fields influence the behavior of charged particles?

When magnetic fields and electric fields interact, they can affect the motion of charged particles. The magnetic field can cause the charged particles to move in a curved path, while the electric field can accelerate or decelerate the particles. This interaction is important in various phenomena, such as the motion of charged particles in a particle accelerator or the behavior of charged particles in a magnetic field.


What is result of the deflection of charged particles along the van Allen?

Charged particles are deflected along the Van Allen belts due to the Earth's magnetic field. This deflection causes the particles to spiral around the magnetic field lines, trapping them in the belts and preventing them from reaching the Earth's surface.


Is a magnetic field surrounded by moving electric charges?

Yes, a magnetic field is generated by moving electric charges. When charged particles such as electrons are in motion, they create a magnetic field that can exert forces on other charged particles. This relationship is described by the magnetic field's direction being perpendicular to both the direction of motion of the charged particles and the electric field.


Why do charged particles from the sun (the solar wind) get trapped in the van Allen radiation belts?

Charged particles from the sun become trapped in the Van Allen radiation belts due to the Earth's magnetic field. The magnetic field bends the charged particles' trajectories, causing them to spiral along the field lines and get trapped in the region around the Earth's magnetic poles.


How does the Earth's magnetic field deflect charged particles?

A charged particle naturally changes direction in a magnetic field. This is because any charged particle produces a magnetic field when it is moving. And if the charged particle is moving through a magnetic field, the two fields (in this case the Earth's and the one created by the moving particle) interact to deflect the particle. The particle will be deflected "to the side" or laterally, and positively charged particles will be deflected in the opposite direction of negatively charged one.


What is the reason behind the phenomenon of magnetism, and how is it connected to the movement of charged particles?

Magnetism is a force that results from the movement of charged particles. When charged particles, such as electrons, move, they create a magnetic field. This magnetic field can attract or repel other charged particles, leading to the phenomenon of magnetism.


Will a charged particles at rest be affected by a magnetic field?

Yes.
