Fleming's Right Hand RuleFor a straight conductor (i.e wire) moves at an angle in a magnetic field, an e.m.f (and hence current) is induced. The direction of induced current can be determined by Fleming’s Right Hand Rule. However, if the direction of movement is parallel to the direction of magnetic field, no e.m.f (and hence current) is induced.
Note:
From Fleming's Right Hand Rule, we can clearly see that the direction of induced current depends on
If the direction of movement is parallel to direction of magnetic field, there will be NO induced current produced. The magnitude of induced current is maximum when the direction of movement is perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field. Fleming's Right Hand Rule v.s Fleming's Left Hand RuleAs we have also learnt Fleming’s Left Hand Rule in previous chapter Electromagnetism, many students have problems in deciding which rule to use. The following guide would help you in this.
