How the behavior of electric charges similar to that of magnetic poles?

Like poles repel; opposite poles attract. They are similar to electric charges, for they can both attract and repel without touching. ... Electric charges produce electrical forces and regions called magnetic poles produce magnetic forces.

What is the substance in a magnetic force?

There is no substance. Michael Faraday called them 'Lines of Force'. These imaginary lines run from the North to South poles of a magnet and can be concentrated by channeling them through soft iron or other magnetic metals. If you move a wire through these 'lines' a voltage is generated across the ends of the wire and this can be turned into an electric current by closing the loop of the wire.

When an electrical current flows through a wire it creates what is called an Electro Magnetic Field.A magnetic field is create when an electric current flows through a wire.


Why Do transverse magnetic mode has no magnetic line is in direction of propagation?

No. It has. Since transverse electric mode has it's wave propagating in the Z direction, and has magnetic field existing in the same direction with NO electric field... Likewise, transverse magnetic mode has it's wave propagating in the Z direction and has electric field existing in the same direction with NO magnetic field.


Why is light in the electromagnetic spectrum Is light a type of electromagnetic radiation But how does that work Light is not magnetic or is it?

Part of the electromagnetic spectrum can be detected by eye, and we call that bit "light". The thing about electromagnetic radiation is that a varying magnetic field causes a (varying) electric field (that's how power stations make electric current) and a varying electric field causes a (varying) magnetic field. So electromagnetic radiation is what you get when a varying electric field creates a varying magnetic field which in turn contributes the varying electric field. The whole thing then appears as bundled varying electric and magnetic field wave system which propagates at the velocity of light, That is why it is called electromagnetic. There are no magnetic poles or electric charges in it, and it can travel through a vacuum.
