MCQ
What is the space around a current$-$carrying conductor, in which its magnetic effect can be experienced called?
- AElectric field
- BMagnetic pole
- ✓Magnetic field
- DCharge distribution
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Magnetic field
The space around a current$-$carrying conductor, in which its magnetic effect can be experienced is called the magnetic field.
When a current is passed through a conductor, it modifies the space around the conductor and forms a magnetic field.
