Question

What is meant the magnetic effect of electric current?

Answer 1

The term 'magnetic effect of electric current' means that an electric current flowing in a wire produces a magnetic field around it . A iron, steel, nickel and cobalt.The direction of magnetic field through a current carrying conductor is determined by the direction of flow of electric current.This concept actually means that the flow of an electric current through a conductor produces a magnetic field around it.

Answer 2

The display of behaviour /properties, similar to that of a magnet, by a current carrying wire/coil is known as magnetic effect of  electric current.
