The moving charge in the wire causes the compass to deflect; this is because

A. the moving charge induces a magnet field
B. the energy of the charge pushes on the compass
C. the electrons heat up the wire, causing the compass to deflect

Respuesta :

The answer is A. the moving charge induces a magnet field .


Answer:

The moving charge induces a magnetic field

Explanation:

According to Faraday's Law, the moving charges in a closed circuit (conductor) induces a magnetic field.

There is a potencial difference called electromotive force, wich is proportional to the magnetic flux through a surface. Matematically this coud be written as

[tex]\epsilon = -\frac{d\Phi}{dt}[/tex]

where [tex]\epsilon[/tex] is the EMF, and [tex]\Phi[/tex] is the magnetic flux (the derivative on t means that the magnetic flux is changing in time).

This means that the moving charges, generates an EMF that is proportional to the magnetic flux change.

Therefore, A is the correct answer.
