Question

Study the diagram alongside carefully and answer the following question:

The law which helped you to find the direction of motion of the conductor is:

Options

• Fleming's right-hand rule

• Fleming's left-hand rule

• Maxwell’s cork screw rule

• Right-hand thumb rule

Answer 1

Fleming's left-hand rule

Explanation:

Fleming's left-hand rule gives the direction of the force, or motion, on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. Fleming's right-hand rule gives the direction of induced current, while Maxwell’s corkscrew rule and the right-hand thumb rule give the direction of the magnetic field around a current-carrying wire.
