Which of the following statements for a solenoid is NOT true? a. To determine the magnetic field you grasp the coil in your right hand. b. A solenoid consists of a coiled conductor. c. Your right-hand thumb must be pointed in the direction of the south pole. d. The fingers of your right hand are curled in the direction of the electric current. e. The right hand rule for a solenoid is consistent with the right hand rule for a straight conductor. The direction of the positively charged particle's velocity according to the diagram above must be a. to the left b. to the right c. upward d. out of the page, perpendicular to the page e. into the page, perpendicular to the page
A wire loop is moved into a magnetic field. You have to find the direction of the current in a portion of the loop that is moving perpendicular to the field. Will you use Fleming's left-hand rule or right-hand rule?
Magnetic Effect of Electric Current
Very-Short-Answer Questions
A wire loop consists of two equal parts that are connected so that they form a "rectangular figure eight." The loop is moving with constant speed through a region of uniform $\vec{B}$ field that points into the page (Figure $P 21.42$ ). The longer side of the loop is twice the width of the magnetic field region. Draw a qualitative graph that shows how the induced current in the loop depends on time during the period in which the loop moves from the position shown in the figure to the position where the left side of the loop exits the magnetic field. Assume that a counterclockwise direction of the current in the right half of the loop is positive.
