  2. Fleming's right-hand rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleming's_right-hand_rule

    Fleming's right hand rule. In electromagnetism, Fleming's right-hand rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor attached to a circuit moves in a magnetic field. It can be used to determine the direction of current in a generator's windings.

  3. Right-hand rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-hand_rule

    Ampère's right-hand grip rule, [6] also called the right-hand screw rule, coffee-mug rule or the corkscrew-rule; is used either when a vector (such as the Euler vector) must be defined to represent the rotation of a body, a magnetic field, or a fluid, or vice versa, when it is necessary to define a rotation vector to

  4. FBI mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FBI_mnemonics

    The various FBI mnemonics (for electric motors) show the direction of the force on a conductor carrying a current in a magnetic field as predicted by Fleming's left hand rule for motors [1] and Faraday's law of induction. Other mnemonics exist that use a right hand rule for predicting resulting motion from a preexisting current and field.

  5. Oersted's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted's_law

    In electromagnetism, Ørsted's law, also spelled Oersted's law, is the physical law stating that an electric current induces a magnetic field. [ 2 ] This was discovered on 21 April 1820 by Danish physicist Hans Christian Ørsted (1777–1851), [ 3 ] [ 4 ] when he noticed that the needle of a compass next to a wire carrying current turned so ...

  6. Fleming's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleming's_rules

    Fleming's rules are a pair of visual mnemonics for determining the relative directions of magnetic field, electric current, and velocity of a conductor. [1]There are two rules, one is Fleming's left-hand rule for motors which applies to situations where an electric current induces motion in the conductor in the presence of magnetic fields (Lorentz force).

    The placement of objects like pens and gearshifts is also typically geared toward those with a dominant right hand. Here are 19 simple, daily tasks or experiences that can be a hassle for left ...

  9. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Both dl and dA have a sign ambiguity; to get the correct sign, the right-hand rule is used, as explained in the article Kelvin–Stokes theorem. For a planar surface Σ , a positive path element d l of curve ∂ Σ is defined by the right-hand rule as one that points with the fingers of the right hand when the thumb points in the direction of ...
