Current Electricity Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge through a conducting medium with respect to time. It is caused by drift of free electrons through a conductor to a particular direction.Charges in motion constitute an electric current. Such currents occur naturally in many situations. Lightning is one such phenomenon in which … Read more
The Earth’s Magnetic Shield: A Journey into Geomagnetism The Earth, our home planet, is not just a rocky sphere floating in space. It possesses a hidden, yet vital, force field: the geomagnetic field. This invisible shield, generated deep within the Earth’s core, protects us from the relentless barrage of charged particles emanating from the Sun, … Read more

Magnetism Magnetism is one aspect of the combined electromagnetic force. It refers to physical phenomena arising from the force caused by magnets, objects that produce fields that attract or repel other objects. All materials experience magnetism, some more strongly than others. Permanent magnets, made from materials such as iron, experience the strongest effects, … Read more
