Reconstruction of Ampere's experiment to show the behaviour of an electric current in a magnetic field

Illustration showing Reconstruction of Ampere's experiment to show the behaviour of an electric current in a magnetic field. Ring of wire pivots on mercury bearings on column C. When current passed through, it aligns itself with its plane at right-angles to the magnetic meridian. Bare column can hold a second wire, so that effect of two electric currents upon each other can be studied.
