A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

MAGNETIC EFFECTS OF CURRENT

The magnetic effects of current explain how moving electric charge produces magnetic fields and how those fields act on currents and charges. For the exam, you must master field patterns around conductors, the direction rules used to predict them, and the force and torque relations that connect current, magnetic field, and motion.
