Magnetism and Electromagnetism Concepts

The video introduces electromagnetism, starting with a review of electricity and magnetism. It explains how electric currents create magnetic fields, a concept discovered by Hans Christian Oersted. The video then describes how electromagnets work by using electric currents to generate magnetic fields, and highlights their applications in various technologies. The tutorial concludes with a prompt to subscribe for more educational content.
