Magnetic fields can be defined as a field with magnetic influence based on electrical charges, currents, and other magnetic materials. The charge in the magnetic field is perpendicular to the force to which it applies, thus if the charge is negative, then the force is positive, and if the force is positive, then the charge is negative. Magnetic fields are often created due to the spinning of electrons from the nucleus of an atom, but only in small quantities. Another way to create a magnetic field is through the use of ferromagnetic materials and by applying charges.
