electromagnetic interactions
Electromagnetic interactions are fundamental forces that occur between particles with electric charges. They involve the attraction or repulsion between charged objects, governed by electromagnetic fields. These interactions are responsible for a wide range of phenomena, from holding atoms together to enabling electricity, magnetism, and light. When particles with charge move or change, they produce electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, radio waves, or X-rays. Essentially, electromagnetic interactions are the reason why magnets stick to metal, why we can see light, and how power lines transmit electricity—all connected through the behavior of electric and magnetic fields.
