Ex 2) Magnetic field around Straight Conductor (A Wire) with current
Image created by John Wetzel, founding author of
WikiPremed.
Magnetic field flux lines around the conductor w/ current are circular.
To find the direction of the flux lines:
a) Use north pole of a compass
b) "First Left Hand Rule"
Why Left
and not right??
1) Palms away, left hand thumb direction of electron flow (current) 2) fingers curl in direction of magnetic field
Do the magnetic lines of flux go
