Question

Generate a description of the right-hand rule for finding the magnetic field around a current carrying wire and tell how it is used to determine the direction of a magnetic field around a straight, current carrying wire.

Answer 1

Right Hand Rule:

The direction of the magnetic field is governed by the direction of the current flowing through the conductor. Right Hand Grip Rule is a simple method of finding the direction of current flowing through the Conductor.

Method:

Grasp a wire with your right hand in such a way that your thumb is pointed in the direction of current. Then curling fingers of your hand will point in the direction of magnetic field.
