A compass can show that an electric field is present. So, a battery, a coil of wire and a compass together could demonstrate that an electric current produces a magnetic field.

Answer:

A) A battery, a coil of wire and a compass.

Explanation:

When current flows through the coil it will produce magnetic field in the region of coil

This magnetic field is given by equation

[tex]B = \mu_0 n I[/tex]

here we know that

n = number of turns per unit length

I = current in the coil

So here we need

1). A coil of wire

2). A battery to produce current

Now this magnetic field is detected by a magnetic compass so next part we need is

3). Magnetic compass
