Fleming’s left-hand rule is applied using the direction of conventional current. Which statement about electron flow is correct?
In a loudspeaker, the voice coil sits in a radial magnetic field. An alternating current produces an alternating force (motor effect) on the coil. Which of these correctly links the direction reversals?
In a single-turn rectangular coil in a uniform downward magnetic field, the front face of the coil carries current left-to-right while the back face carries current right-to-left. Using Fleming’s left-hand rule, the front face experiences a force in which direction relative to the coil?
Which physical quantity is required, along with the current and length, to compute the magnetic force on a straight conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field?
A conductor of length L carries current I through a region of magnetic flux density B at 90°. The magnitude of the force is given by F = BIL. Which of these changes increases F by a factor of 4?
An engineering drawing shows a coil side at the front with current flowing left and the magnetic field directed from top to bottom. Using Fleming’s left-hand rule, is the front side pushed toward or away from you and why?
A horizontal bar of length 0.40 m carries 10 A of current to the right in a magnetic field of 0.50 T directed into the page. What is the direction and magnitude of the force on the bar?
A student learning Fleming’s left-hand rule is asked which finger represents the direction of the force (motion) on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field.
Which finger in Fleming’s left-hand rule shows the direction of the magnetic field?
A long straight conductor runs into the page (away from you) through a region where the field is from left to right. Using Fleming’s left-hand rule, what is the direction of the magnetic force on the conductor when conventional current flows into the page?
A rectangular coil in a motor has the left side conductor carrying current into the page and the right side carrying current out of the page. The magnetic field runs from top to bottom. Using Fleming’s left-hand rule, which way does the coil rotate (viewed from front)?
