Question

A horizontal wire carries a current (conventional) straight toward you. From your point of view, the magnetic field caused by the current in the wire is doing what?

Answer 1

The magnetic field circles the wire in a counter-clockwise direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is by using Fleming right hand rule which says If you point your pointer finger in the direction the positive charge is moving, and then your middle finger in the direction of the magnetic field, your thumb points in the direction of the magnetic force pushing on the moving charge.
