Default Is magnetic field affected by metal conductor?

Thanks a lot for all your responses. I have better understanding now.
Some of you have really taken time to explain in detail, you all are
very helpful people.Thanks again

Hi,
Is magnetic field affected by metal conductor?


Yes.


How metal works with electric field,


If you ask what is the effect of a conductor on a magnetic field,
then: Because metal conducts, it tends to block, divert, change the electric
field.


magnetic field,


A changing magnetic field induces current in a conductor which in
turn causes a magnetic field that opposes the original magnetic field. This
new magnetic field sums with the original to form a completely new magnetic
field.


electromagnetic field?


Currents are induced in the conductor which sum to arrive at a
completely new electromagnetic field around the conductor.

Thanks,
SP
