In Fleming’s left hand rule, the forefinger gives:
Show Hint
Use “FBI” to remember: Forefinger = Magnetic Field, Middle Finger = Current, and Thumb = Motion/Force.
- Direction of current
- Direction of force
- Direction of magnetic field
- Direction of electric field
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Fleming’s left-hand rule states that if the thumb, forefinger, and middle finger of the left hand are extended mutually perpendicular, the forefinger represents the direction of the magnetic field, the thumb shows the motion (force), and the middle finger indicates current.

A circular coil of diameter 15 mm having 300 turns is placed in a magnetic field of 30 mT such that the plane of the coil is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. The magnetic field is reduced uniformly to zero in 20 ms and again increased uniformly to 30 mT in 40 ms. If the EMFs induced in the two time intervals are \( e_1 \) and \( e_2 \) respectively, then the value of \( e_1 / e_2 \) is:
