Q. 2. With the help of a labelled circuit diagram illustrate the pattern of field
lines of the magnetic field around a current carrying straight long conducting
wire. How is the right hand thumb rule useful to find direction of magnetic field
associated with a current carrying conductor ?

- The magnetic field lines around a straight conductor (straight wire) carrying current are concentric circles whose centers lie on the wire.
- Right hand thumb rule states that if a current carrying straight conductor is supposedly held in the right hand with the thumb pointing towards the direction of current, then the fingers will wrap around the conductor in the direction of the field lines of the magnetic field.
