Oersted Discovery


We can conclude from this experiment that an electric current causes a magnetic field around it just like a magnet causes a magnetic field. When you put the compass near the electrical wire with current flowing through it, the compass did not point north; instead, the compass needle pointed in the direction of the current's magnetic field.
