The magnetic field must be changing relative to the conductor (wire). So the wire could move through the field, or the field could move past the wire, or you could have a changing field (from an electromagnet with varying current).

Maxwell's equations state that electric fields create magnetic fields, and vice versa. If you have a current, you have a magnetic field. If you have magnets, you have an electric field.


When an electric current is passed through a coil what does this create?

A magnetic field.


Can we create magnetic field to electric field?

we can create electromotive force (and electric current) by changing magnetic field linked with a conductor by the principle of electromagnetic induction which is governed by the Faraday's and Lenz's law. But electric field is created by statical electricity.


How can produce an electric current by means of electric magnetic induction?

Create relative motion between a magnetic field and a loop of wire.

The deflection of a magnetic compass in the presence of an electric current, is evidence that an electric current produces a magnetic field.


How electric current have magnetic effect?

The magnetic force acts only on moving electric charges; A constant electric current produces an unchanging magnetic field and a changing electric current produces a changing magnetic field.
