Name any two effects of electric current.
Two effects of electric current are as follows:
1. Heating Effect of Electric Current -
As the name implies, the generation of heat due to electric current is known as the heating effect of electricity. When an electric current is passed through a conducting wire, it starts heating. This is the heating effect of electric current.
Example - Electric Kettle, Water Heater, etc.
2. Magnetic Effect (Magnetism) of Electric Current - 'Hans Christian
Oersted' was a Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field around it, and it was the first connection found between electricity and magnetism.
When an electric current passes through a long coil or a solenoid, a magnetic field is formed around it. This electromagnetic field is equivalent to a magnetic field around a bar magnet. Therefore, a current-carrying long coil or a solenoid act as a bar magnet which are known as electromagnets.
