Correct option is C
The correct answer is (C) Fleming’s right-hand rule.
Explanation:
Fleming’s right-hand rule is used to determine the direction of the induced current when a conductor moves in a magnetic field.
- Thumb → Direction of motion of the conductor.
- Forefinger → Direction of the magnetic field.
- Middle finger → Direction of the induced current.
This rule is widely used in electric generators and electromagnetic induction concepts.
Information Booster:
- Fleming’s Right-Hand Rule: Used in electric generators to determine the induced current’s direction.
- Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule: Used in electric motors to determine the direction of force on a current-carrying conductor.
- Electromagnetic Induction: The process of generating an electric current in a conductor by changing the magnetic field around it.
- Applications: Used in dynamos, alternators, and power generation systems.
- Discovered by:John Ambrose Fleming (1905).
Additional Information:
- Fleming’s left-hand rule: Used for finding the force on a current-carrying conductor, not for induced current.
- Maxwell’s corkscrew rule: Describes the direction of the magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor.
- Right-hand thumb rule: Used to determine the magnetic field direction around a conductor, not the induced current.
