Lorentzs Force
Direction of the Lorentz force Conductors in which current flows in a magnetic field are forced to move. The direction of this force is perpendicular to the current and the magnetic field, respectively. More precisely, we … more

Oersted’s Experiment
Oersted’s experiment Oersted, a Danish physicist, accidentally discovered the occurrence of a magnetic field around a current-carrying wire. Oersted said that he was surprised to see the compass’s magnetic needle placed next to the wire rotate … more
Magnetic Field around a Coil
Magnetic field created by electric current The magnetic field is the area surrounding a magnet in which the magnetic force exists. The magnetic field is also formed around the conductor through which the current flows. This … more
Magnetic Field around a Circular Wire
The magnetic field is the area surrounding a magnet in which the magnetic force exists. The magnetic field is also formed around the conductor through which the current flows. This is electromagnetism. The direction of the … more
