Electromagnetism – is an interaction of electric current and magnetic

fields.
Magnetism – refers to physical phenomena arising from the force
caused by magnets that produces fields that attract or repel other
objects.

Three Main Types of Magnets – Permanent magnet, Temporary
Magnet, Electromagnet.
Types of Magnetic Materials – Ferromagnetic, Diamagnetic,
Paramagnetic.
Properties of Magnet – Have 2 poles & Like poles repel and unlike poles
attract.
Hans Christian Oersted – a Danish physicist who discovered the
relationship between electricity and magnetism.
Electromagnet – a magnet that is made of electricity.
Parts – Battery, Copper wire, Nail.
Electromagnetic Induction – a process where a conductor placed in a
changing magnetic field causes the production of a voltage across the
conductor.
Michael Faraday – English physicist that discovered that the magnetic
field creates electric current.
