 2 the person answering this question used "electromagnetic" and "magnetic" as the two vectors, should be electric and magnetic vectors in an EM wave/photon edit approved Jan 21 '18 at 16:56 Thomas Lee Abshier ND 62211 gold badge66 silver badges1414 bronze badges Photon's only move in their direction of travel, it is the electromagneticelectric field vector and magnetic field vector that oscillate, making them waves. The presence of these fields induces fields in adjoining space, thus the energy in the field travels, wave like.
