Fleming's right hand rule​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fleming's right hand rule

Fleming's Right-hand Rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor attached to a circuit moves in a magnetic field. It can be used to determine the direction of current in a generator's windings.

When a conductor such as a wire attached to a circuit moves through a magnetic field, an electric current is induced in the wire due to Faraday's law of induction. The current in the wire can have two possible directions. Fleming's right-hand rule gives which direction the current flows.

The right hand is held with the thumb, index finger and middle finger mutually perpendicular to each other (at right angles), as shown in the diagram.[1]

The thumb is pointed in the direction of the motion of the conductor relative to the magnetic field.

The first finger is pointed in the direction of the magnetic field. (north to south)

Then the second finger represents the direction of the induced or generated current within the conductor (from the terminal with lower electric potential to the terminal with higher electric potential, as in a voltage source)

The bolded letters in the directions above give a mnemonic way to remember the order. Another mnemonic for remembering the rule is the initialism "FBI", standing for Force (or otherwise motion), B the symbol for the magnetic field, and I the symbol for current. The subsequent letters correspond to subsequent fingers, counting from the top. Thumb -> F; First finger -> B; Second finger -> I.

There is also a Fleming's left hand rule (for electric motors). The appropriately handed rule can be recalled from the letter "g", which is in "right" and "generator".

These mnemonics are named after British engineer John Ambrose Fleming, who invented them.

Answer 2

Answer:

Fleming’s right hand rule:

Whenever a conductor is moved in an electromagnetic field, an emf gets induced across the conductor (according to Faraday’s law of Electromagnetic induction).

According to Fleming’s right hand rule the thumb, fore finger and middle finger of right hand are stretched perpendicular to each other and the thumb represents the direction of movement of conductor, forefinger represents direction of the magnetic field, then the middle finger represents direction of the induced current.

Important point to remember:

This rule is applicable for

Electric generator:

Electric generator is a machine that converts one form of energy into another, especially mechanical energy into electrical energy.

The S I unit of induced current is Ampere (A)
