Chapter 6: Electromagnetic Radiation
Field Induction
When an electric field changes, it induces a magnetic field. As this magnetic field arises, it reciprocates by inducing an electric field. This interplay results in the formation of light. Duration: 2:33.
Electromagnetic Waves
The interplay between the electric and magnetic fields produces electromagnetic waves. Duration 1:51.
Electromagnetic Radiation
There is a very close relationship between electricity and magnetism. They may regenerate each other to give rise to electromagnetic radiation. Duration: 6:21.
The Electromagnetic Spectrum
The electromagnetic spectrum includes everything from radio waves to gamma waves, including a region known as visible light. Duration: 7:25
