Q
Q: A current-carrying conductor experiences a force in a magnetic field. What is the direction of this force given by?
Solution:
The direction of the force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by the right-hand rule.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the direction of the current in the conductor. This is the flow of electric charge.
Step 2: Identify the direction of the magnetic field. This is usually indicated by arrows or lines in diagrams.
Step 3: Use your right hand to apply the right-hand rule. Point your thumb in the direction of the current.
Step 4: Point your fingers in the direction of the magnetic field lines.
Step 5: Your palm will face in the direction of the force experienced by the conductor.
