A Simple Electric Circuit
... CURRENT ELECTRICITY The problem with understanding electricity, is that it’s effects happen too quickly and you can’t see it. For this reason we use m odels to understand it. Two m odels that have been found useful are the Styrofoam Ball Model, and the W ater Model. ...

Using magnetic fields to keep things moving
... b The current would short-circuit across the wires instead of passing through them. This would cause the coil to overheat if it did not cause a fuse to blow. c Iron is a magnetic material, so it makes the magnetic field much stronger. It is easily magnetised and demagnetized when the current alterna ...

History of electromagnetic theory
For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
