Crash Course Physics #33: Ampere's Law

Curated by ACT

This Crash Course Physics video [8:45] focuses on Ampere's Law. Hans Christian Oersted had just discovered the connection between electricity and magnetism. Meanwhile, a French physicist named Andre-Marie Ampere was experimenting with some wires, trying to learn more about the connection between currents and the magnetic fields they create. Ampere would discover one of the most fundamental laws of electromagnetism: what we now call Ampere's Law.
