    Question

    Direction of rotation of armature of motor can be found with the help of ______.

    A.

    Fleming’s right-hand rule

    B.

    Fleming’s left-hand rule

    C.

    Right hand thumb rule

    D.

    Maxwell’s corkscrew rule

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (B) Fleming’s left-hand rule.

    • Explanation: Fleming’s left-hand rule helps determine the direction of force (motion) on the armature of a motor, given the direction of the magnetic field and current.

    • Incorrect Options Explanations:

      • Fleming’s right-hand rule: This rule is used to find the direction of induced current in a generator, not in a motor.
      • Right hand thumb rule: This rule is used to find the direction of magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor.
      • Maxwell’s corkscrew rule: This rule is used to find the direction of the magnetic field in relation to a moving electric charge, not for motor rotation.

    Information Booster:

    • Fleming’s left-hand rule:
      • Thumb represents the direction of motion (force).
      • First finger represents the direction of magnetic field.
      • Second finger represents the direction of current.
    • Armature: The rotating part of a motor, where mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.
