The Magnetic effect of current was discovered by:

physics electromagnetism magnetic field due to a circular current carrying conductor magnetic field produced in a circular loop field due to a current carrying coil oersted experiment field due to a current carrying conductor magnetic field due to a straight current carrying conductor magnetic field lines due to current

  1. John Ambrose Fleming

  2. Hans Christian Oersted

  3. Michael Faraday

  4. André-Marie Ampère

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
The magnetic effect of an electric current was discovered by Hans Christian Oersted in 1820. He demonstrated the effect by plotting compass close to a long straight wire which is carrying current and noting it's deflection. And the by reversing the direction of the current, the compass needle was deflected in the opposite sense.
