Moving Charges and Magnetism

Moving charges indicate electricity and this is the current topic of interest. The relationship between electricity and magnetism was noted with the alignment of a needle with respect to circuits carrying electricity. It was discovered that its alignment is tangent to an imagined circle with a straight wire in the centre and a plane perpendicular to the wire. When current is passed, however, the needle's orientation shifts. The formation of a magnetic field is thought to be caused by the movement of charges. Topics included in this chapter 1.
