Question

i) How would you test if a wire behaves like a magnet or not?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Place the compass at different points on the table at varying distances from the wire. Observe the deflection in each case. We guess from this activity that a current carrying wire behaves like a magnet. When the current is stopped, the associated megnatic property also vanishes.
