one thing though, im not a physics major or anything
but isint thier a connection between speed/electro-magnetism?
if this was the case, could magneto have some control over flashes speed?
anyone knoweldgeable in this subject?
wow.... umm, the bast i can think of (im only a physics hobbiest) is that as the flash moves he would generate and release thermal energy, and his body is run by increadably small electromagnetic pulses... there is also the matter of weak and strong electromagnetic forces that hold atoms in place...
1) Thermal heat: I have yet to see any evidence that magneto can convert heat into something useable, though energy is energy. It would be speculative at best, and if magneto HAS those kind of powers he is basically the biggest jobber in the MU.
2) Electromagnetic pulses: Since people's muscles and bodily functions are created by small pulses of electricity from the brain to the local area. Theoretically, these run on the same frequencies that magneto can control, but again, I don't think he has ever done it in the comics. Also again, if he can do this, he is not being written up to his potential. I can't think of a team of X-men that could counteract that type of shut down...
3) Strong and Weak electromagnetic forces: These forces hold atoms togeather. I don't think it is likely that magneto can control this for the same reasons as the other 2. It is so powerful that the X-men would never defeat him.
Aside from those there are the more general powers that magneto has... Someone mentioned gravity before (Which i find highly unlikely as gravity is thought to be associated with graviton particles and other more abstract physics) but he can do electromagnetic levetations....
For the first 3, I say no, if i missed something please let me know.
For the levetation thing... unlikely, as he is required to THINK about affecting the Flash's electromagnetic field before he does, and in that time the flash has already KO'd the team.
