Both, E=Es + Ev = cB therefore, B= Es/c + Ev/c = Bs + Bv.
The electric and magnetic fields are quaternion fields consisting of a scalar field and a vector field.
Contemporary Physics has not realized this yet. Correct Relativity Theory is a manifestation of quaternion fields, consisting of a scalar field and three vector fields. This shows up in the Energy Momentum four vector, E= Es +cmV.
Actually the Lorentz Force is both scalar and vector: F=qvB = - qv.B + qvxB
it makes no sense consider only qvxB and to ignore qv.B.

How are electromagnetic fields different from a magnetic field?
Electromagnetic fields can be varying in intensity. A magnet is static.
Why is electric current a scalar quantity?
For a physical quantity to be termed a vector quantity, having magnitude and direction is not enough. The quantity should obey the laws of vector addition too. Like the triangle law or the parallelogram law. As we know, if two currents meet at a junction, the total current of the resultant current will be the algebraic sum of the two current and not the vector sum.Sometimes, treating a current like a vector makes sense, like when the current though a conductor induces a magnetic field.
Is there a magnetic field around current carrying conductors?
yes.magnetic field present around the conductor.current and magnetic fields are inter related..with current we can produce magnetic field and vice versa
Only some currents are able to produce magnetic fields?
No. Any current produces a magnetic field. Look at Maxwell's equations.
What best describes magnetic field lines?
Magnetic fields are produced because of moving electric charges, and visualizing the very complex mathematical relationships that fall under the magnetic field might become much easier if magnetic field lines were used. A higher density of field lines means a stronger magnetic field. Keep in mind that those lines do not actually exist; they are drawn only to visualize the strength of the magnetic field.
Is magnetic field line scalar or vector quantity?
Vector.
Is magnetic field strength a vector quantity?
When one refers to the strength of a magnetic field, they're usually referring to the scalar magnitude of the magnetic field vector, so no.
Is magnetic field a scalar or density quantity?
A magnetic field is neither: it is a vector field with both direction and quantity.
What are the two kinds of fields that make up an Electromagnetic?
Scalar field and vector field.

What has the author Richmond Beckett McQuistan written?
Richmond Beckett McQuistan has written: 'Scalar and vector fields: a physical interpretation' -- subject(s): Scalar field theory, Vector analysis
What are the vector and scalar fields?
In mathematics, a field is a set with certain operators (such as addition and multiplication) defined on it and where the members of the set have certain properties. In a vector field, each member of this set has a value AND a direction associated with it. In a scalar field, there is only vaue but no direction.
What are two fields surround a moving electric charge?
A moving electric charge will produce a magnetic field.A moving electric charge will produce a magnetic field.A moving electric charge will produce a magnetic field.A moving electric charge will produce a magnetic field.
What is the technical description of an Electromagnetic four-potential?
An electromagnetic four-potential is a relativistic vector function from which the electromagnetic field can be derived. It combines both an electric scalar potential and a magnetic vector potential into a single four-vector.
What do fast electrons that move through magnetic fields produce?
They produce forces: F=evB = e(-v.B + vxB) = e(-vBcos(angle) + vBsin(angle)).The forces are quaternion conssiting of scalar force -ev.B and vector force evxB.These forces create a orbit of motion in the magnetic field. If the angle is 90 degrees the force is a circle perpendicular to the magnetic field.
Is money a vector or scalar?
Money is a scalar quantity because it can be used in any field[no particular direction]
