Electromagnetism Quiz

Electromagnetic force = Dominant force in the interactions of atoms and molecules Weak force = Unified with electromagnetic force at high energy as electroweak force Strong force = Responsible for binding protons and neutrons in atomic nuclei Gravitational force = Responsible for the attraction between masses in the universe

Electrostatics = Concerned with stationary electric charges Magnetism = Occurs exclusively between charged particles in relative motion Electromagnetic fields = Created in the vicinity of charged particles, accelerating other charged particles via the Lorentz force Lorentz force = Causes acceleration of charged particles in the presence of electromagnetic fields

Attraction between particles with opposite charges = Electromagnetic force Repulsion between particles with the same charge = Electromagnetic force Binding protons and neutrons in atomic nuclei = Strong force Attraction between masses in the universe = Gravitational force

<p>Charged particles in relative motion = Cause magnetism, an interaction exclusively between them Charged particles = Experience electromagnetic forces, resulting in the creation of electromagnetic fields Electroweak force = Unification of weak force and electromagnetic force at high energy Lorentz force = Acceleration of charged particles in the presence of electromagnetic fields</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Combination of electrostatics and magnetism = Forms the basis of electromagnetism Unified weak force and electromagnetic force = Electroweak force at high energy Creation of electromagnetic fields = Result of charged particles and their interactions Acceleration of charged particles = Occurs via the Lorentz force in the presence of electromagnetic fields</p> Signup and view all the answers
