the magnetic lines is observed in a experiment are shown in the adjacent figure.then show the direction of the current following through the wire
Answers
Explanation:
Magnetic Field of Current
The magnetic field lines around a long wire which carries an electric current form concentric circles around the wire. The direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the wire and is in the direction the fingers of your right hand would curl if you wrapped them around the wire with your thumb in the direction of the current.

Magnetic Field of Current

The magnetic field of an infinitely long straight wire can be obtained by applying Ampere's law. The expression for the magnetic field is
ShowFor a current I = Amperes andradial distance r = m,the magnetic field is
B = Tesla = Gauss.
The earth's magnetic field is about 0.5 gauss. The permeability of free space is

Magnetic Field of Current

The magnetic field of an infinitely long straight wire can be obtained by applying Ampere's law. Ampere's law takes the form

and for a circular path centered on the wire, the magnetic field is everywhere parallel to the path. The summation then becomes just

The constant μ0 is the permeability of free space.
