Electromagnetism

Electromagnetism is the physics of the electromagnetic field. This is a field, encompassing all of space, composed of mutually dependent time varying electric and magnetic fields. The term "electromagnetism" comes from the fact that the electric and magnetic fields are closely intertwined, and, under most circumstances, it is impossible to consider the two separately.
