A current through a horizontal power line flows in east to west direction. What will be the direction of magnetic field at a point directly below it when viewed from east end?
Anti-clockwise in a plane perpendicular to the wire
Correct Answer: (b) Anti-clockwise in a plane perpendicular to the wire
Explanation: According to the right-hand thumb rule, the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire circulates in an anti-clockwise direction when viewed from the east.
