Magnetic Field produced by Electric Curent
Magnetic Field produced by Electric Current
An electric current flowing through a conductor produces magnetic field. This was first observed by in 1820 by a Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted. It is said that he was demostrating an experiment to show heating effect of electric current. He noticed that each time he switched on the current a magnetic compass placed near the circuit showed a deflection, which led to the first connection between electricity and magnetism.
Electrons inside an atom are in rotational motion around the nucleus as shown in the figure. It is equivalent to a current loop. Hence atom as a whole consists of many tiny magnets. The magnetic properties of atoms are dependent on the direction of motion of electrons.

Arrange the following steps in sequential order to demonstrate the magnetic effect of the electric current using magnetic compass. (A) Wind an insulated conducting wire around the magnetic compass such that the axis of the coil is directed along east-west direction and connect the free ends of the wire to a cell through a switch. (B) Take a magnetic compass. (C) When current flows through the conducting wire, it behaves as a magnet and deflects the compass needle. (D) ABCDWhen the switch is closed, the magnetic needle in the compass deflects from its initial position and when the switch is opened, the needle comes back to its initial position. | |||

8thMy experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Ayan Ghosh
8thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Aman Kumar Shrivastava
10thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
Hiya Gupta
8thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Shivam Rana
7thA marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
