Class, here are some videos and sites to help you better understand the topics of Magnetism & Electricity:





If you'd like to try an E-simulation, click on the following links too:
Magnets and Electromagnets
Magnet and Compass


Electricity & Magnetism Connection:
The movement of electrons creates magnetic force! Remember that electrons are part of atoms. A magnet’s atoms are lined up so that all the north poles point in the same direction and all the south poles point in the other direction. The two ends of the magnet that the poles are pointing toward have the strongest magnetic force.
In Summary:
Electricity is an invisible form of energy based on the movement of electrons.
Magnetism is a mysterious and invisible force that can push or pull, created by electrons moving.
Electricity and magnetism are part of the same fundamental force called electromagnetism.
Together they are the reason many machines work, from motors to computers.
Electricity produces magnetism, and magnetism produces electricity! They both affect and influence each other.
