==Key Stage 5==
===Meaning===
The '''electromagnetic interaction''' is the mechanism by which all [[particle]]s with [[Electrical Charge|charge]] affect one another.
===About The Electromagnetic Interaction===
: The '''electromagnetic interaction''' is one of the 4 [[Fundamental Interactions|fundamental interactions]] governing how [[Subatomic Particle|subatomic particles]] affect one another.
: The '''electromagnetic interaction''' causes [[Positive Charge|positively charged]] [[particle]]s to [[repel]] one another, [[Negative Charge|negatively charged]] [[particle]]s to [[repel]] one another and opposite [[Electrical Charge|charges]] to [[attract]] one another.
: The '''electromagnetic interaction''' acts to [[repel]] [[proton]]s from one another in the [[Atomic Nucleus|atomic nucleus]].
: The '''electromagnetic interaction''' is mediated by [[photon]]s.
