Question

The direction of current in a solenoid depends on the direction of magnetic field’. Do you agree with this statement? Showthe pattern of magnetic field lines of a solenoid through which a steady current flows. What does the pattern of field lines insidethe solenoid indicate

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Yes the direction of the magnetic field is found based on Fleming's Right Hand Rule

2) The pattern indicates the direction of the magnetic force field lines

Explanation:

1) The solenoid is the is the coil of electric conductor that when it carries an electric current produces a magnetic field

According to Fleming's Right Hand Rule, the direction of the magnetic field produced by a solenoid, depends on the direction of the current such that when the direction of the conventional current is in the direction of the wrapped fingers, the thumb points in the direction of the magnetic field which is North N.

2) The pattern of field lines inside the solenoid indicates the direction of the generated magnetic field moving from left to right within the solenoid as the electric current moves around in the direction shown in the diagram.
