2. Magnetic Effect of a Current
Hens Christian Oersted (1777-1851)
was the first scientist to observe that
a compass needle gets deflected when
placed near a current carrying a
conductor. By this, he concluded that
electricity and magnetism are related
to each other and called it
electromagnetism.

3. • Magnetic field pattern
around a straight wire.
• The resulting magnetic
field lines form concentric
circles around the wire.
• The Right-Hand Thumb
rule can be used to predict
the direction of the
magnetic field

4. Magnetic field around a wire carrying
current
The magnetic field of a long, straight current-
carrying wire is stronger:
1) when it is closer to the wire, or
2) when a larger current flows through the wire.

5. Magnetic field lines
• Magnetic field lines are the paths around a magnet along
which the north pole of a magnetic compass needle tends to
move.
• The magnetic field lines around a magnet can be observed by
sprinkling iron filings around a magnet. It can also be observed
by moving a magnetic compass around a magnet.
• i) The magnetic field lines originate from the north pole and
end at its south pole.
• ii) The magnetic field lines are closer at the poles.
• iii) The magnetic field lines do not intersect each other.

6. Electromagnet
• A strong magnetic field inside a
solenoid can be used to magnetize a
piece of magnetic material like a soft
iron when placed inside the coil.
Such a magnet is called an
electromagnet.
• If electric current is passed
through a wire wound around a
piece of soft iron, it behaves like a
magnet. Such a magnet is called an
electromagnet.

7. USES OF ELECTROMAGNETICS
Electromagnets are used widely in many things
1. Circuit Breakers
2. Electric Bell
3. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

8. Fleming’s Left Hand Rule
• The direction of force (motion) of a current carrying conductor
in a magnetic field is given by Fleming’s Left Hand Rule.
• It states that ‘ If we hold the thumb, fore finger and middle
finger of the left hand perpendicular to each other such that the
fore finger points in the direction of magnetic field, the middle
finger points in the direction of current, then the thumb shows
the direction of force (motion) of the conductor’.

9. KICKING WIRE EXPERIMENT

10. Fleming’s Right Hand Rule
• The direction of induced current is given by Fleming’s Right
Hand Rule.
• It states that ‘ If the thumb, fore finger and middle finger of
the right hand is held perpendicular to each other such that the
fore finger points in the direction of the magnetic field , the
middle finger shows the direction of induced current then
• the thumb points in the direction of motion of the conductor.
