Key Concepts

Hans Christian Oersted discovered in 1820

Hans Christian Oersted discovered in 1820 that electric current flowing through a wire deflects a compass needle, proving that electricity and magneti

A magnetic field is the region

A magnetic field is the region around a magnet where magnetic force can be experienced. It is characterized by direction and strength, represented by

Current

Current-carrying wires produce circular magnetic field lines around them. The direction is determined by the right-hand thumb rule. For straight wires

A moving charge in a magnetic

A moving charge in a magnetic field experiences a force given by F = qvB sinθ. For current-carrying wires in magnetic fields, the force is F = ILB sin
