Failing, then, to I i *r V FiG. 257. Amperes Rule. find anything really flowing along our wire, it is still absolutely necessary, seeing there is something definite in its action, to assign a direction to the supposed current ; and it has been agreed that we shall represent the cur- rent as flowing from the positively charged body to the negatively charged body that is, in the case we have been considering, from the copper to the zinc through the wire. When this conventional representation has ...been adopted, the action on a magnetic needle can easily be defined and remembered by an artifice proposed by Ampere. In Fig. 257, let N s re- present the magnetized needle, N being the pole which points towards the north, and s the south pole. Let c be the end of the wire connected with the copper plate, and z that connected with the zinc. The current is there- fore supposed to flow in the direction indicated by the arrows in a wire above the needle and in the wire placed below. Now, suppose that a man is swimming in the current in the same direction it is flowing, and with his face towards the needle, then the north pole of the needle will always be deflected towards his left.
