MAGNETIC EFFECT OF ELECTRIC CURRENT-test

The document is a test for a 10th grade science class chapter on the magnetic effects of electric current. It contains 10 multiple choice and short answer questions about topics like magnetic field lines, solenoids, compasses near current-carrying wires, and electric circuit safety measures. Students are asked to draw diagrams, identify increases or decreases in magnetic fields, explain observations, and determine if statements are true or false.
