Scientists use the right-hand rule to predict the direction of an induced magnetic field—or a magnetic field created by a current. To use the right-hand rule, position your right hand so that the thumb points in the direction of the current. The magnetic field lines wrap around the wire in the same direction as the fingers of your right hand.
If the current was pointed down, will the induced magnetic field be clockwise or counterclockwise?
