What’s the Difference Between the Electric and Magnetic Field and How Do you Calculate Them?
An electric field (sometimes E-field) is the physical field that surrounds each electric charge and exerts force on all other charges in the field, either attracting or repelling them.
A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials. A moving charge in a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its own velocity and to the magnetic field.
