Magnetism- Oersted Experiment

Who invented electricity generated magnetism?

• Faraday

• Ampere

• Maxwell

• Oersted

if a swimmer swims in a direction of current facing a magnetic needle, then the north pole of the magnetic field deflects towards his left hand and south pole towards his right hand.​ Which rule is this?

• Oersted Swimming Rule

• Ampere Swimming Rule

If the current is passing through wire, it starts acting like a magnet. Is this statement true?

• Yes

• No

Which out of these is not the observation of Oersted Experiment?

• When the circuit is complete the magnetic needle shows deflection. This shows that when electric current flows through a conductor, magnetic field is produced around the conductor. ​

• If the direction of flow of electric current is changed (by reversing the end of the battery) the direction of deflection in the magnetic needle is not reversed. ​

• If the current flow is stopped the deflection in the magnetic needle also ceases.

• If the current is increased, there is greater amount of deflection. ​

In which direction does a freely suspended magnet settle ?

• North-South

• South-North

• North

• South
