In Fleming's left-hand rule the thumb represents
AThe direction of the induced emf
BThe direction of the magnetic field
CThe direction of the current in the wire
DThe direction of force on the conductor
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The direction of force on the conductor
1. The chapter states Fleming's left-hand rule for force.
2. Thumb represents the direction of force (motion).
3. Forefinger is field; middle finger is current.
4. So option A is correct.
