Solution and Explanation
Fleming's Left-Hand Rule states that if we stretch the thumb, forefinger, and middle finger of the left hand mutually perpendicular:
1. Forefinger → Direction of magnetic field (B)
2. Middle finger → Direction of current (I)
3. Thumb → Direction of force (motion) (F)
This rule is useful in electromagnetic devices like motors.
1. Forefinger → Direction of magnetic field (B)
2. Middle finger → Direction of current (I)
3. Thumb → Direction of force (motion) (F)
This rule is useful in electromagnetic devices like motors.
