Oersted first noticed this around 1820.
Since the needle in a compass is magnetized by induction it loses its magnetism easily by rough contact or heat.
compasses have Mineral Oil filled Needle Housings, with steel needles that pivot on a sapphire bearing The light mineral oil is there to damp the needle (stop the needle swinging too loosely) and it has to withstand freezing (because compasses are used in cold places).
It generally a round device, something like a small covered dish, with a small post in the center with a magnetized needle attached in such a way that it can turn freely. The dish is usually filled with air, but it is not uncommon for it to be filled with water, either.
It is made up of a hollow needle, which is attached to a tube and a plunger. When the plunger handle is pulled back, fluids are drawn into the tube. The fluid is forced out through the needle when the handle is pushed down.
From that list, I'll have to go with 'B'.
The real question should be how do you get current to flow through a compass needle.
Yes
He used an electric current to affect the needle of a compass.
The compass needle was deflected.
Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.
Yes
no
The compass needle.
If a magnetic compass needle is placed in a magnetic Field , its needle deflects and points in the north and south directions

Yes it is possible to use compass needle at the poles
