Hello, SweetBee595

I will guide you to find the answer to your question.

First of all, it is important to understand that magnetism is a fundamental force and that it impacts a wide range of technologies and industries. For example, transportation systems need magnetism like how Magnetic Levitation trains use powerful magnets to lift and propel trains without friction. Speakers and headphones use electromagnetism to convert electrical signals into sound, just like most of our communication systems, such as radios and cellphones. Kitchen appliances use electromagnetism, like how induction cooktops use electromagnetic induction to heat cookware. Another important application that uses electromagnetic induction is the generation of most of the electricity we use today trough power plants. Briefly, this source is extremely important in our society, and a multitude of devices use this force.

Hello SweetBee595,

Thank you very much for your question! Many everyday devices operate using electromagnetism or magnetism. First of all, there are all devices that have an electric motor. I'm talking about household appliances like refrigerators and washing machines. Furthermore, vehicles with electric motors use this method. Speakers also use this process.
