Right Hand Rule of Induced Current

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“Fleming’s rule for direction of induced current. Extend the thumb, forefinger and middle finger of the right hand [as shown]. Place the hand [so that] the thumb will point in the direction in which the conductor moves, the forefinger in the direction of the lines of force (N to S), then will the middle finger point in the direction in which the induced current flows.” -Hawkins, 1917
