Open in App
Solution

As per Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, whenever a conductor moves inside a magnetic field, there will be an induced current in it. If this conductor gets forcefully moved inside the magnetic field, there will be a relation between the direction of applied force, magnetic field, and the current. This relation among these three directions is determined by Fleming Right-Hand rule
This rule states "Hold out the right hand with the first finger, second finger and thumb at a right angle to each other. If forefinger represents the direction of the line of force, the thumb points in the direction of motion or applied force, then second finger points in the direction of the induced current.
