Does electrical engineering require physics?
Mastering math and physics are mandatory for success in electrical engineering. Chemistry is not as important but could be considered if you are interested in the manufacture of semiconductors. Math and physics serves as the basis of all the courses you will take.
Does chemistry help with computer science?
Computational chemistry allows a computer to understand a specific aspect of science — such as the structure of a protein — and then learn how it functions. Applications of coupling computers and chemistry include creating solar cells and drugs and optimizing motor vehicles.
What is the relationship between electromagnetism and electricity?
Key Takeaways: Electricity and Magnetism Electricity and magnetism are two related phenomena produced by the electromagnetic force. Together, they form electromagnetism. A moving electric charge generates a magnetic field. A magnetic field induces electric charge movement, producing an electric current.
Can Electricity exist without magnetism?
In simple words, electricity can exist without magnetism, but magnetism cannot exist without electricity. What are the types of electricity? What are the sources of electricity? The various sources of electricity are solar energy, fossil fuels, nuclear power, wind energy and hydroelectric power.
What are some examples of electricity and magnetism in everyday life?
Another example of electricity and magnetism at work is in an atom, since an electron is a charge which moves about the nucleus, in effect it forms a current loop, and hence a magnetic field may be associated with an individual atom.
Is it possible to transform an electric field into a magnetic field?
If you understand special relativity, you can transform the electric field from the rest frame of the particles to the laboratory frame, and see that a magnetic field arises, but I guess, you will not find that very illuminating.$\\endgroup$ – Sebastian Riese Jun 3 ’15 at 16:17
