When the free ends of a tester are dipped into a solution, the magnetic needle shows deflection. Can you explain the reason?
This is due to the magnetic effects of the electric current. When the free ends of the tester are dipped into the solution, the circuits get completed and the current starts flowing through it. And, then the current carrying conductor behaves like a magnet. Hence, magnetic needle shows the deflection.
