Question
Explain in brief about Fleming's left hand rule.
✓
Answer
Fleming's left hand rule is used to find direction of magnetic force acting on a current carrying straight conductor, when placed perpendicular to external magnetic field.
→ As shown above, stretch left hand palm such that first finger (forefinger), second finger (middle finger) and thumb remain mutually perpendicular. At this time, if first finger points in the direction of magnetic field and second finger points in the direction of electric current then the thumb indicates direction of magnetic force acting on current carrying straight wire.
