Correct Answer: André-Marie Ampère


Solution : The correct answer is André-Marie Ampère.

André-Marie Ampère, a French scientist, proposed that a magnet should exert an equal and opposite force on a current-carrying conductor. A wire carrying current has its magnetic field. A current-carrying wire like a regular bar magnet, attracts a magnetic substance. There is no magnetic effect when the current is removed or the switch is closed. This is known as the magnetic effect of current.
