Magnetic poles can not exist and monopoles but must be in pairs where you have a force from one polarity to another. Electric charges, such as plus and minus, can exist alone.

What are the similarities of magnetic poles and electric charge?

Magnetic poles and electric charges both act the same as in:"opposites attract and same repel."Electric charge is the source of magnetic poles. The Magnetic pole is W=zq where z is the free space impedance 375 Ohms and q is the charge. W units is the Weber or volt-second.


How do electric and magnetic forces act different objects?

They push or pull when it touches.


Magnetic poles are similar to electric charges in that they both can repel and attarct one another?

Yes, magnetic poles, like electric charges, can attract or repel each other based on their orientation. Similar poles repel each other, while opposite poles attract. This behavior is a common characteristic of both magnetic and electric fields.


What is the difference between electric force and magnetic force?

Electric force is the force between charged particles, while magnetic force is the force between magnetic poles or moving charges. Electric force acts on stationary charges, while magnetic force acts on moving charges. Both forces are fundamental in nature and play important roles in the interactions of particles and objects.


How are the forces between charges similar to to the forces between magnetic poles?

The forces between charges and magnetic poles both follow an inverse square law, meaning they decrease with distance squared. Additionally, both forces can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the relative orientations of the charges or poles. Finally, both types of forces are mediated by fields (electric or magnetic fields) that extend through space.

Are there positive and negative magnetic charges analogous to positive and negative electric charges?

Outside the dubious field of magnetic therapists, the terms 'positive' and 'negative' are not applied to magnetic polarities. Furthermore, we do not describe magnetic polarity as a 'charge'. However, magnetic poles and electric charges follow the same rule -i.e. like poles repel while unlike poles attract.


What are similarities and differences between the magnetic and electric charge interaction?

Both magnetic and electric charges interact with each other through attraction or repulsion. However, electric charges are typically carried by protons and electrons, while magnetic charges (or poles) are found in magnetic materials like magnets. Additionally, while electric charges produce electric fields that exert forces on other charges, magnetic charges produce magnetic fields that affect moving charges.


What like magnet poles do?

Like magnetic poles (or like electric charges) push away from each other. The same also happens with like color charges of the quarks.


How are electrical charges similar to magnetic poles?

There are two oppositely "charged" poles for both electric and magnetic. For magnetism we call the poles North and South, while for static electricity we call the poles positive and negative. Of course, you can walk away with the electrically charged positive pole, while you can't walk away with the North "charged" pole. There are differences. There is (apparently) no magnetic monopole.


How is the strength of two magnetic poles related to the force between them?

The rule for the interaction between the magnetic poles is similar to the interaction between the electrical charges in terms of the attraction and repulsion. In both cases the unlike poles attract while the like poles repel.


What is difference between between electric dipole moment and magnetic dipole moment?

An electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative charges in a system, creating an electric field. A magnetic dipole moment, on the other hand, is a measure of the strength and orientation of a magnetic field created by a current loop or a moving charge. In essence, electric dipole moments deal with electric fields generated by charges, while magnetic dipole moments pertain to magnetic fields generated by moving charges.
