What is the direction of the magnetic force on the current in (a)?

The direction of the magnetic force on the current in (a) is perpendicular to both the direction of the current and the direction of the magnetic field.


What is direciton of the force due to the earth's magnetic field on a wire carrying a current vertically downward?

The force due to Earth's magnetic field on a wire carrying a current vertically downward would be perpendicular to both the current flow and the magnetic field lines, according to the right-hand rule. This force would either point to the east or west depending on the direction of the magnetic field lines.


What happens to the direction of a magnetic field around an electric current when the direction of the current is reversed?

The direction of the magnetic field around the electric current also reverses when the direction of the current is reversed. This is determined by the right-hand rule, where the direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow.


In which direction will each compass point when there is a large current in the direction shown?

When there is a large current in the direction shown, each compass point will point in the same direction as the current.


What do you call current that does not reverse direction?

Direct current (DC) is the term used to refer to current that flows in one direction and does not reverse its direction. This is in contrast to alternating current (AC), which changes direction periodically.

If the path of current flow is laid out on a map what is the map is called?

The map that shows the path of current flow is called an electrical circuit diagram or schematic diagram. It displays how electrical components are interconnected and the direction of the current flowing through them.


What is the direction of the magnetic field if the current is directed upward or downward?

The direction of the magnetic field is counterclockwise or clockwise. For a current flowing in a wire you can use the "left hand rule" If you take your left hand and have the thumb point in direction of electron flow in the wire, the fingers wrapped around the wire will show the direction of the magnetic field by the direction the fingers are pointed..


What is a downward flowing air current?

A current of air with its velocity directed downwards or in a direction below the horizontal. Mathematically v.n < 0 where v is the velocity vector and n is the upward normal at the surface.

AC, Alternating Current.


When the flow of a current is aways in one direction?

When the flow of current is aways in one direction it is known as direct current.


When electric current changes direction is called?

When electric current changes direction, it is called alternating current (AC).
