Right Hand Rule Study Sheet Right Hand Rule #1 A magnetic field is produced by a straight wire conductor carrying a current. This Right Hand Rule for a straight, currentcarrying wire shows the direction of the magnetic field. Right Hand Rule #2 A solenoid creates a magnetic field down its center. If a piece of iron is slipped into the solenoid it becomes a stronger electromagnet. This Right Hand Rule can be used to determine the polarity of an electromagnet. Right Hand Rule #3 A current-carrying wire experiences forces when placed in a magnetic Field. This Right Hand Rule can be used to determine the direction of force when the current and magnetic field direction are known. Right Hand Rule #4 If a wire is moved through a magnetic field it can induce an electric current because the magnetic field exerts a force on the charges in the wire. This Right Hand Rule can be used to determine the direction of the force on the charge (induced current) if the direction the wire is moving and the magnetic field are known.
