Are electricity and magnetism the same thing?

No, but they are considered opposing sides of the same coin, co-existing together. Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell published a unifying theory of electricity and magnetism in 1865. Maxwell's equations go into great scientific detail, of course one needs to be able to understand them. read more

And magnetism is a part of the electric field that one can experience when in realtive movement to an electric field. So they are all related. But they are not all the same. read more

Magnetism and electricity are not the same thing in the sense that the magnetic field (for example the magnetic field of a coil) does not attract an electric charge nor a electric charged body will attract a magnet (if neglect polarisation effects). read more
