Solution

The correct options are
A

Electric Speaker


B

Electric Motor


Electric motors and speakers work on the principle that a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field experiences a force. This force in the case of a motor turns the rotor, while in a speaker moves the diaphragm to produce sound.

A compass does not require current to operate, as the needle itself is a permanent magnet and in a magnetic field, it experiences a force.

A solenoid produces a magnetic field when current is passed through it.
