GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -A magnetic field produced by an electric current traveling thru a straight cable will take a circular shape around the cable. A magnet, on the other hand, is a dipole, and produces a magnetic field that starts at the north pole, curves down and ends at the south pole.

Detailed explanation-2: -A current traveling through a loop of wire creates a magnetic field along the axis of the loop. The direction of the field inside the loop can be found by curling the fingers of the right hand in the direction of the current through the loop; the thumb then points in the direction of the magnetic field.

Detailed explanation-3: -When an electic current is passed through any wire, a magnetic field is produced around it .
