Particle called Photons

Matter

Electromagnetic fields are composed of Magnetic fields

Atoms

 

  • Atoms are composed of Neutrons
  • Atoms are composed of Protons
  • Neutrons have No charge

Wave called Photons
Elementary particles which interact with Electrically charged particles

Electrically charged particles
  • Electrically charged particles are the core concept of Electromagnetism
  • Electrically charged particles are the source of the Electromagnetic force
  • Electrically charged particles interact by the exchange of Photons
  • Electrically charged particles are found within Atoms
  • Electrically charged particles create and interact with Electric fields
  • Protons have Positive charge
    Electric fields exert forces on Electrically charged particles
    Electromagnetic fields are composed of Electric fields
    Atoms are composed of Electrons
    Waves have Wavelength
    Electric charge is a property of matter MatterElectrically charged particles emit Electromagnetic radiation
    Photons are Elementary particles
    Waves + Photons
Electromagnetic radiation
  • Electromagnetic radiation is carried by Photons
  • Electromagnetic radiation interacts with Matter

Electric fields + Magnetic fields
Wavelength determines the effect on matter

Electromagnetic force
  • Electromagnetic force is a manifestation of Electromagnetism
  • Electromagnetic force interacts by the exchange of Photons
  • Electromagnetic force arises due to the interactions between Electrically charged particles
  • Electromagnetic force produces electromagnetic  interactions between electrically charged particlesEnergy determines effect on Matter
Electromagnetism
  • Electromagnetism interacts with Matter

 

Positive charge opposite charges repel Negative charge
Atoms and Molecules

Electromagnetic fields whch mediate Electromagnetic force

Waves have Frequency
Positive charge opposite charges repel push and pull

Electromagnetic force produces Electromagnetic interactions
