Field and Force
Electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. The
magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the
effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the
other
The magnetic field around elementary particles is a basic characteristic
of the particles, just as their mass and electric charge are intrinsic
properties
The magnetic field of all the electrons in certain materials add together
to give a resultant magnetic field around the material
However, in other materials the magnetic fields of all the electrons
cancel out, giving no resultant magnetic field surrounding the material.
