1. All forms of energy emanating from an electrical source and transmitted through the air.

Included are the fields produced by light, radio, X-rays, and gamma rays and the higher the frequency of the fields produced, the more energy is contained.

2. The combination of electric and magnetic fields that surround moving electrical charges (for example, electrons); such as, those in electric currents.

Electromagnetic fields apply a force on other charges and can induce current flows in nearby conductors.

3. An oscillating electric field and its associated magnetic field acting at right angles to each other and at right angles to their direction of motion.
4. The region surrounding a moving electric charge which consists of magnetic and electric force fields especially related; such as, to orientation and strength, and that possesses a definite amount of energy.
5. A field created by the interplay of an electric field and a magnetic field when an electric current passes through a wire.

An electromagnetic field consists of two kinds of energy: electrostatic (potential energy) and electrodynamic (kinetic energy).

An antisymmetric second-rank tensor whose elements are proportional to the electric and magnetic fields.
