Marno and Capra are discussing magnets. Point out a flaw in
their reasoning (a place where they can grow) and a strength in
their reasoning (a glow). Explain why the grow needs work and why
the glow is correct.
Marno: “The electric force is distinct from the magnetic force
because of the experiment where a charged balloon attracted both
sides of a magnet. This isn’t how magnets behave, so charges are
not magnetic.”
Capra: “Yes, but magnetic fields are created by moving electric
charges, therefore electric charges can create both electric fields
and magnetic fields. We should really call it a single
electromagnetic field.”
Marno: “No. We can’t have a single field because that would mean
we can add the electric and magnetic fields together.”
Capra: “Yes! That would work, you’ve got it. We’ve unified
electricity and magnetism.”
Luke: “You can’t just add anything together!”
