Fleming’s Right-Hand Rule (Generator Rule)
This rule aids in establishing the direction of induced current or voltage in a conductor that moves across a magnetic field. It finds common application in understanding the operations of electric generators.
Thumb: Align your thumb with the Motion (M) direction of the conductor.
First Finger: Indicate the Magnetic Field’s (B) direction using your first finger.
Second Finger: With your thumb and first finger forming a right angle, the second finger points to the direction of the Induced Current (I) or Voltage (V)
Fleming’s Left Hand Rule and Fleming’s Right Hand Rule
Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule and Fleming’s Right-Hand Rule are principles employed to ascertain the force’s orientation experienced by a conductor carrying electric current when exposed to a magnetic field. These rules were provided by John Ambrose Fleming and form the basics of electromagnetism. Their primary purpose is to predict the direction of the force acting on a conductor in relation to the magnetic field and the current’s flow.
