Can an electric current be used to deflect a compass needle?
Yes.
An electric current cannot be used to deflect a compass needle?
Yes, it can.
How will you locate a current carrying wire concealed in a wall?
because we take a compass which needle is deflect
Can an electric current be used to affect a compass needle?
Yes. Any electric current is surrounded by a magnetic field.
Why does a compass needle move when placed near a wire carrying an electric current?
True... The wire carring current creates a slight magnetic field.
Can an electric current be used to deflect a compass needle?
Yes.
An electric current cannot be used to deflect a compass needle?
Yes, it can.
How do you show that electric current causes magnetism?
Put a wire carrying an electric current near a compass and it causes the needle to deflect.
What kind of test can determine that an electric current is flowing in a straight copper wire is connected to a battery?
A compass needle test will determine whether a current is flowing in the wire.IF the current is flowing the compass needle will deflect from alignment with the wire.

Can a electric current affect a compass?
Yes. An electric current is surrounded by a magnetic field, and this will affect a compass. Please note that this is more noticeable in the case of DC - for AC, the current changes all the time, it changes very quickly, and the AVERAGE value of the magnetic field is zero.
True or False an electromagnet is created when electric current flows through a compass needle?
The real question should be how do you get current to flow through a compass needle.
Can an electric current be used to affect a compass needle?
Yes. Any electric current is surrounded by a magnetic field.
Is an electromagnet created when electric current flows through a compass needle?
Yes
Is an electromagnet is created whene electric current flows through a compass needle?
no
How did Oersted discover the relationship between an electricity and magnetism?
He used an electric current to affect the needle of a compass.
When a compass is placed near a conductor where current flows its needle would deflect what does this indicate?
This proves that a magnetic field is developed around the conductor wen current flows through it...
