Question
Chapter 26, Problem 74A
To determine
The direction of the current.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 74A
The direction of the current is west to east.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Fleming's left-hand rule states that whenever a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field the magnetic field causes it to experience a force. The middle finger points toward the current. The thumb indicates the direction of force or motion that acts on the conductor.
According to the question the conductor is placed in the direction of north-south and the conductor is moving in east direction and magnetic field pointing down so the direction of current is from west to east.
Conclusion:
Hence, the direction of the current is west to east.
