It's not charged. Pick up a fridge magnet and go to your window.

A moving charge would be deflected by an electric field (or a magnetic field, or both) provided the charge was not moving parallel or antiparallel to the field lines. As was already explained, photons, or light do not have a charge and are not affected by magnets.

Nice try. However check out the Zeeman effect and the Stark effect as an interesting result occurs.

Since an electromagnetic wave like light or radio is a photon and has no charge, it will not interact with another photon.
An applied electric or magnetic field doesn't alter the field of an electromagnetic field because, as you said, the superposition principle holds. Waves carry energy.

Light is an electromagnetic wave. light is not affected by magneting or static electrical fields because it has no mass and it's speed is constant ! Short answer is that light is not a charged particle and wouldn't be affected by any sort of H-field. (The effect is also sometimes referred to as the magneto-optic Faraday effect or MOFE.) In physics, the Faraday effect or Faraday rotation is a magneto-optical phenomenon—that is, an interaction between light and a magnetic field in a medium.

Well, light does interact with magnetic fields.

The path of light is not affected by the influence of a magnetic field, as photons (light particles) do not possess any charge. : photons have entourages of electrons (and other stuff) around them, and so photons can interact with other photons by interacting with this cloud of charged stuff. Mercury has a weak magnetic field and is certainly not habitable. Technical p.s. Light itself is composed of an oscillating electric and magnetic field, and one very important property of electric and magnetic fields is what we call "linearity."

According to photon, they can not be affected by electric and magnetic fields.But EM waves are affected by external electric and magnetic fields.Why ? However, they do not carry any charge. That is what I … Although both types of fields are interconnected, they do different things. Unfortunately, the path light takes is not affected by the presence of a magnetic field. What I meant to say is light electromagnetic wave.

So the chance that it is bent by magnetism or electric field, but that is not the issue in this thread, is there. Unfortunately, the path light takes is not affected by the presence of a magnetic field. Magnetic Field Basics Magnetic fields are different from electric fields.
