1. They discuss how you can use the “right hand rule” to know which direction the electrical field is pointing. Explain “the right hand rule.”
The right hand rule is a technique used to determine the direction of a vector (such as an electrical field) in a three-dimensional space. To use the right hand rule for determining the direction of an electrical field, you can follow these steps:
1. Choose your right hand and extend your fingers in the direction of the vector (for example, the current or the magnetic field).
2. Rotate your hand so that your fingers curl towards the vector. Your thumb will then point in the direction of the resulting vector (in this case, the electrical field).
By using the right hand rule in this way, you can easily determine the direction of electrical fields in various situations.
