Electromagnetic Dipole

**Electromagnetic waves** are composed of both electric and magnetic field waves generated by the movement of charged particles. These waves are a form of energy emitted as charged particles move through space, behaving like a wave. Electromagnetic waves consist of an oscillating electric field and an oscillating magnetic field, with both fields oscillating perpendicularly to each other and in phase. An oscillating electric field generates a magnetic field, and a changing magnetic field in turn produces an electric field. This continous interaction causes both fields to fluctuate in time, with one field driving the change in the other. Electromagnetic waves occur naturally but can also be generated and used in modern technology. Common examples include AM and FM radio, cell phones, garage door openers, wireless networks, radar, and microwave ovens. These devices rely on electromagnetic waves to transmit data and signals in everyday life.
