I was recently taught in school about the propagation of light as a combination of changing electric and magnetic fields.
I had read somewhere that a magnetic field was basically an electric field in a moving frame of reference.
So,I wanted to know if in some frame the propagation of light could be explained only by an electric field?
These ideas are new to me and I have not yet grasped them completely,so I apologise if my question is overtly stupid.
