There are two different right hand rules...
- American right hand rule: Looking to the strike direction, the bed dips to the right. In our example, that would fit with 000/45. So, looking to the north, the bed dips to the right, to 090 (east).
- British right hand rule: The thumb of the right hand indicates the dip direction, and the heal points to the strike direction. So in our example, we would record the orientation as 180/45. That is: Strike towards 180 (perfect south bearing), and dip of 45º towards 090.

∙ 8y agoThere are several so-called "right-hand rules"; one of them tells you the direction of the magnetic field around a current-carrying wire.

What is the Difference between left hand rule and right hand rule?
Fleming's right hand rule shows the direction of induced current flow when a conductor moves in a magnetic field. Fleming's left hand rule shows the direction of the thrust on a conductor carrying a current in a magnetic field.
Flemmings left Hand Rule?
Fleming's left hand rule for motors is a visual depiction used to determine direction of rotation in a motor. Extend your thumb, index finger and middle finger of your left hand at right angles to each other. The thumb represents direction of relative motion. The index finger represents direction of flux (magnetic field). The middle finger represents direction of current flow. A simple way of remembering what each digit represent is the phrase: "Martha's Fresh Cookies." M being motion, F being flux and C being current. Fleming's Right hand rule for generators is the same except you use your right hand and it applies to direction of rotation of generators.
Which law gives the direction of magnetic field due to a current carrying conductor?
The right hand rule. If you were to place your right hand around the conductor, with the thumb pointing in the direction of current flow, your fingers which are wrapped around the conductor will point in the direction of magnetic flux. Said another way, if you are looking at the end of the conductor and current is flowing towards you, then magnetic flux will be counter-clockwise.
What is pure geology?
the application of geology to many fields for example economical geology, petro geology, enviromental geology this is related to the various human activities therefor it is called applied geology.
What is the study of the origin history and structure of the earth?
geology
When the magnetic poles of the earth flip this december then the right hand rule must also apply correct?
The Answer is yes. the Right hand rule, is a rule that can not be broken & must obey the law of Physics. So therefore the right hand rule does apply.
What is the Difference between left hand rule and right hand rule?
Fleming's right hand rule shows the direction of induced current flow when a conductor moves in a magnetic field. Fleming's left hand rule shows the direction of the thrust on a conductor carrying a current in a magnetic field.
What is Dc generator principles?
Fleming's right hand rule.
Who invent the right hand rule in physics?
Albert Einstein
What is the relation of Fleming right hand rule in AC Generator?
gfchs
What are the hand and foot rules of science Are there any?
There's a right hand rule in physics, concerning electricity and magnetism
What rule is used to find out polarity of a current carrying solenoid?
right hand rule is used to find out the polarity of current
What is the rule relating to the direction of the field due to the current in a wire?
The "Right Hand Rule" Put your right hand under the wire with your thumb sticking out and in the direction of the flow of the current (note that it is opposite to the direction of the movement of the electrons!) and close your fist; the fingers of the right hand will curl around in the direction of the magnetic field.
Why do you suddenly feel like writing with your right hand is uncomfortable when you are right handed?
If writing with your right hand is uncomfortable, this might mean that you have arthritis. It is important to see a doctor to rule out serious causes of something worse.
When using the left hand rule for generator the thumb point in what dierction?
There is no left handed rule. The correct term is right handed rule. Using the right handed rule, your thumb is pointing in the direction of current flow, and your fingers are pointing in the direction of magnetic flux flow.
What is motion using of right hand rule?
The answer is that 'it depends' what you mean by the 'right hand rule'!This is because Fleming's Right-Hand Rule applies to generator action if you are are using 'conventional flow' but to motor action if you are using 'electron flow'.So, for generator action, the 'motion' (indicated by the thumb) refers to the direction of the motion of a conductor through the magnetic field. For motor action, the 'motion' refers to the direction of the force applied to conductor within a magnetic field.
What is Maxwell right hand rule?
Ampere's right hand thumb rule states that if you hold the current carrying wire in your right hand so that your thumb points in the direction of the current, then the direction in which your fingers encircle the wire give you the direction of the magnetic lines of force around the wire .On reversing the direction of current in thewire , the direction of the magnetic lines of force is also reversed.
