e can define motion as the change of position of an object with respect to time. A book falling off a table, water flowing from the tap, rattling windows, etc., all exhibit motion. Even the air that we breathe exhibits motion! Everything in the universe moves

Electromagnetism
• Electricity and magnetism two faces of
electromagnetism
– a moving electric charge produces magnetic fields
– changing magnetic fields move electric charges

Magnetic fields from electricity
• A static distribution of charges produces an electric
field
• Charges in motion (an electrical current) produce a
magnetic field
– electric current is an example of charges (electrons) in motion

Electromagnets
• Arranging wire in a coil and running a current
through produces a magnetic field that looks a lot
like a bar magnet
– called an electromagnet
– putting a real magnet inside, can shove the magnet back
and forth depending on current direction: called a
solenoid

Induced Current
• changing magnetic field produces an electric
current in a loop surrounding the field
called Faraday’s Law electromagnetic induction.
