When this takes place themagnet begins to rotate round its own axis with a velocity depending on itsmagnetic power and on the intensity of the current.… … Fig. 819. This rotatory motion is readily intelligible on Amperes theory~of mag-netism (879), according to which, magnets are traversed on their surfaceby an infinity of circular currents in the same direction, in planes perpendi-cular to the axis of the magnet. At the moment at which the…
