This interactive simulation models the magnetic field produced by two current-carrying wires and visualizes how their fields combine and interact. Learners can adjust wire positions, current directions, and magnitudes to observe real-time changes in field strength and direction patterns around the conductors.
Learning objectives: Understand how electric current generates magnetic fields around conductors | Predict and observe the superposition of magnetic fields from multiple sources | Explore how current direction and magnitude affect magnetic field strength and orientation
