Solution

Name: Fleming’s right-hand rule

Concept: It represents Fleming’s right-hand rule used for finding the direction of the induced current with respect to the directions of the magnetic field and motion of the conductor.

The direction of the current induced in a conductor can be obtained by holding the thumb, the index finger, and the middle finger of your right hand mutually perpendicular to each other. In this situation, the thumb indicates the direction of the motion of the conductor, the index finger points along the magnetic field, and the middle finger points along the current induced in the conductor.
