Question

In the statement of Fleming’s left-hand rule, what does the direction of the thumb represent?

  1. Direction of the force
  2. Direction of the magnetic field
  3. Direction of the current
  4. Does not represent any direction

hintHint:

Direction of force

The correct answer is: Direction of the force


    Fleming's left hand rule states that if we arrange our thumb, forefinger and middle finger of the left hand perpendicular to each other, then the thumb points towards the direction of the magnetic force, the forefinger points towards the direction of the magnetic field and the middle finger points towards the direction of the current.
