What role do electrons play in magnetism?

Magnetism is produced through electric currents. In the case of a permanent magnet, it is the electrons circling around the atomic nucleus that produces the magnetism (more atoms have one orientation than the opposite orientation).Magnetism is produced through electric currents.

What is magnetism produced by?

All magnetism is due to circulating electric currents or motion of electric charge. In magnetic materials the magnetism is produced by electrons orbiting within the atoms; in most substances the magnetic effects of different electrons cancel each other out, but in some, such as iron, a net magnetic field can be induced by aligning the atoms.

Is magnetism composed of atoms?

yes, everything if you talk science, EVERYTHING is atoms.


What is required for electricity and magnetism?

Electricity is the movement of electrons between atoms. Magnetism only exists around moving electrons.


What causes an object to exhibit magnetism?

An object exhibits magnetism when its atoms have aligned magnetic fields, creating a magnetic force.


What is the phenomenon of magnetism caused by?

The phenomenon of magnetism is caused by the alignment of the magnetic moments of atoms within a material, creating a magnetic field.


What will increasing the electric current to an electromagnet do to its magnetism?

An increasing electric current moving into an electromagnet will become stronger in its magnetism. As the atoms align the increasing magnetism will stop at one point, making the electromagnet as strong as it can be.


What do scientists think causes magnetism?

Magnetism is caused by the movement of electrical charges within atoms, specifically the alignment of electrons spinning in the same direction. This alignment creates a magnetic field that can attract or repel other magnetic materials. The overall magnetic properties of a material depend on the arrangement and movement of its electrons.


Magnetism depends on the arrangement of what?

Magnetism depends on the arrangement of atoms within a material. When atoms are aligned in the same direction, they create a magnetic field. The alignment of these magnetic moments determines the material's magnetic properties.


What type of particle is responsible for magnetism?

Basically, any magnetism is caused by moving electrical charges - that is, by electrical currents.In an electromagnet, a current is made to flow through a conductor. This causes magnetism, but when the current is switched off, there is no more magnetism.In a permanent magnet, the magnetism is caused by the electrons spinning around the atoms. In some materials, like iron, it is possible for atoms to become aligned, in the sense that more will have their axis of rotation point in one direction than in the other. These atoms cause the magnetism, then. In a regular material, every atom is a tiny magnet, but due to the random positions of the individual atoms, these tend to cancel each other on a large scale.
