Solution

Electric current and magnetic field are closely related.
An current carrying conductor induces a magnetic field around it.
Also, a changing magnetic field through a conductor loop can induce an electric current in the loop.
In fact, these phenomena are one of the key phenomena in physics and used in major applications like electricity production and industrial applications.
