Who among these scientists provided equations that proved the relationship between electricity and magnetism?
Hans Christian Oersted
Michael Faraday
James Clerk Maxwell
Heinrich Hertz
30sS10ES –Ia-j-36.3 - Q2
What did Oersted conclude when he noticed that the magnetic compass needle was deflected as the current passed through a wire above it?
Current in the wire produces an electric field
Current in the wire produces a magnetic field
Current makes the wire a permanent magnet
Current in the wire creates a field that blocks the magnetic field of the Earth
