Best Answer

A magnet will deflect an electric current, the direction in which the force acts is a little complicated. in the presence of a magnetic field, current tries to move in a helical shape (like the shape of a spring).

No it does not ! (:

Answer 2

Iron is not necessarily a magnet. But if you put a magnet near it, it will be atrracted to it. But if you've magnetised it and you put the other magnet so that the north pole is next to the south pole, then they will repel each other.

you can not surely say it will repel it may also attract based upon the pole of the magnet brought near the metal carrying current.{like poles repel and unlike poles attract}.but surely the metal will experience some force because a current carrying metal produces a magnetic field around it.

A magnet can repel another magnet when the same poles are aligned - ie North Pole to North Pole, South Pole to South Pole.
