Question

QUESTION 7 You are standing directly under a wire carrying a current to the West. At your position, the magnetic field of the wire points to the: A South B. North None of these answers D. East E. West

Answer 1

7 given that wire is carorging current to the weat when current flows through a outo conductor, it created magretic field around it in the form of concentric Willes. The clirection of magnetic field is berpendicular to the wire and is given by right hand thumb seule. According to right hand thumb rule, if thumb of right hand points in direction of worent, the dissection of curling of fingers gives the direction of magnetic field. carorging current towards west, the disrection of thumb will be towards west Cond since fingers curl anticlockwise, magnetic to field will be oriented anticlockwise as shown in figure magnetic field Since we are standing cistectly under the wire, the direction of magnetic field will be towards Since wire is I direction of South Hence covorect answer is option O south
