1. Magnetic effect of current

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • magnetic effect of electric current : When electric current flows through a conductor such as a wire, it produces a magnetic field around it, and this phenomenon is called the magnetic effect of electric current.

Essential Points

★ Must-know

  • When current flows through a wire placed above a magnetic compass, the compass needle deflects, and when the current stops, the needle returns to its original direction.

Further detail

  • The magnetic effect of a current-carrying wire disappears when the current stops flowing.
  • Hans Christian Oersted discovered in 1820 that electric current produces a magnetic effect and showed that electricity and magnetism are linked.

2. Magnetic field around a wire

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • magnetic field : The region around a magnet or a current-carrying wire where its magnetic effect can be felt, such as by the deflection of a compass needle, is called a magnetic field.
