Which of the following statement is/are correct?

Statements:

I. A current carrying conductor acts like a magnet.

II. Moving electrons perpendicular to the magnetic field do not experience any force.

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (a) Statement I only

A current-carrying conductor behaves like a magnet because it produces a magnetic field around it.

Explanation:-

1.When a current flows through a conductor, the moving charges create a magnetic field. This is because moving charges produce magnetic fields that are proportional to the current.

2.Right-hand rule You can use the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic field:

• Make a thumbs up sign with your right hand.
• Point your thumb in the direction of the current.
• The direction your fingers curl indicates the direction of the magnetic field
