Final answer:

When placed next to a flowing circuit, a compass needle aligns with the magnetic field of the wire.


Explanation:

In the presence of a flowing circuit, the needle of a compass will align with the magnetic field of the wire. The magnetic field generated by the current causes the compass needle to orient itself along the field lines, with its north pole pointing in the direction of the field.
