lyrics

We know all matter’s made of atoms but what holds them together?
What binds the molecules in objects and makes them feel solid?
And what gives everything around us all the different colours
Let’s go on a journey of electromagnetic knowledge!
Think about this fact:
Particles with the same charge will repel and with the opposite charge they'll attract

Electromagnetism
Electromagnetism
Electromagnetism
Seems like magic but it’s science
Positive and negative attraction
It’s a fundamental interaction
Studying the universe in action
Using science

Just like the sun’s gravity keeping the planets in motion
Inside an atom the protons pull the electrons in the shell
But unlike gravity, which only ever pulls things together
Particles with the opposite charge will attract but with the same charge they will repel

When atoms get excited, they start to send out
Electromagnetic vibrations
We call it light or gamma rays or maybe radio waves
Based on the frequency of oscillation
