Do you know some other effect of electric current apart from heating effect of electric current?

Explanation:
Magnetic Effects of Electric Current
Let us set up a simple electric circuit consisting of a wire, a battery, a switch and a bulb. When current passes through the circuit, the bulb lights up. Now try bringing a magnetic compass near the circuit and notice how the needle deflects when the circuit is complete.
These effects are called the magnetic effects of electric current and they occur because they experience a force. The first scientist who showed that electric current also produces magnetic effect was Hans Christian Oersted.
The direction of the force depends on the direction of the current that flows through the conductor. You can find the direction with the simple right-hand rule, which states that: the index finger points in the direction of velocity ‘v’, middle finger points to the direction of magnetic field ‘B’ and the thumb points in the direction of the cross product ‘F’.
