All electrical circuits produce a magnetic field around the wires when a current is travelling. If we want to generate a large field, we can coil the wire. Such a coil is called a solenoid.

Which layer of the earth produces its magnetic field?
The earth's outer core produces the magnetic field.
Relationship between magnets and electricity?
The relationship between electricity and magnetism is intimate. A changing magnetic field induces electrical current in a wire, and is the basis for electrical generation. Also, an electrical current flowing through a wire creates a magnetic field, and is the basis for most motors.In general, a changing magnetic field creates an electrical field, and a changing electrical field creates a magnetic field. In fact, light is exactly this; two fields oscillating at right angles, and inducing one another through space.One of the four fundamental forces in the universe is the electromagnetic force. Not the electric or the magnetic force, but the electromagnetic force. Basically, you can't have electricity without magnetism and vice versa. That may not make electricity and magnetism exactly the same, but they are intertwined in a most intimate way.
Why does the magnetosphere change shape?
Earth's magnetic field (and the surface magnetic field) is approximately a magnetic dipole, with one pole near the north pole and the other near the geographic south pole. The Inner Van Allen Belt & Outer Van Allen Belt cause the magnetic field.
What do you call the force around a magnet?
the area of magnetic force around a magnet is called the magnetic field
Can magnetic fields go through electrical tape?
yes. Aluminum is a very good electrical conductor. Magnetic fields go right through it. Or do you mean electric insulation tape? That's plastic. It doesn't conduct electricity at all, and does absolutely nothing with a magnetic field.... Answer, Magnetic fields are absorbed by good conductors and generate currents in them like in a transformer. Electrical tape or other plastics generally allow magnetic fields to pass straight through them depending on a quality called their Permeability.
Does lightning produces magnetic field?
Yes, The movement of electrical charges produces a magnetic field
What is an electrical current that produces a magnetic field?
The deflection of a magnetic compass in the presence of an electric current, is evidence that an electric current produces a magnetic field.
What is a electric circuit that produces a magnetic field?
All electrical circuits produce a magnetic field around the wires when a current is travelling. If we want to generate a large field, we can coil the wire. Such a coil is called a solenoid.
Is the magnetic field that is near an electrical circuit parallel or perpendicular to the circuit?
Perpendicular to the circuit.
What is evidence that an electrical current produces a magnetic field?
The deflection of a magnetic compass in the presence of an electric current, is evidence that an electric current produces a magnetic field.
What device produces a magnetic field froma moving electrical charge?
magnet
Device that produces current by moving a magnetic field across a wire?
An electrical generator does that.
What of the following is evidence that an electrical current produces a magnetic?
You can detect the magnetic field by its pull on another magnet, including a compass needle.
What is an electrical current and what causes it?
Electrical current is nothing but movement of electrons in case of metals. It causes heating and produces magnetic field.
What produces electricity from a magnetic field?
Any familiar electrical generator does. (Batteries and solar panels don't.)
Which layer of the earth produces its magnetic field?
The earth's outer core produces the magnetic field.
Can a magnetic field affect the performance of electrical circuits?
You better believe it can, but only if it's changing, otherwise the magnetic field can just pull or push the electrons in the circuit towards or away from it, but it can't slow them down. If the magnetic field is changing, a phenomenon called inductance happens. Inductance is an applied current to a circuit by a changing magnetic field. As you might imagine, an additional applied current to a circuit can definitely change the circuit's behavior and alter its performance.
