प्रश्न
What is Maxwell's corkscrew rule? For what purpose is if used?
उत्तर
If we imagine driving a corkscrew in the direction of a current, the direction in which we turn its handle is the direction of magnetic field.
This rule is used to find the direction of magnetic field if the direction of current is known.
When electric current flows vertically upwards, the direction of magnetic field produced is anticlockwise. Similarly, when electric current flows vertically downwards, the direction of magnetic field is clockwise.

Explain the magnetic field created around a straight current carrying conductor with the help of a diagram.
What is that instrument which can detect the presence of electric current in a circuit?
The figure given below shows the magnetic field around the conductor. Study it and answer the questions:
- What changes are caused by increasing current?
- What do you see when the magnetic needle is kept a little away from the wire?
- In the second part of the figure, the iron filings arrange themselves in a circular manner around the wire. Why does this happen?
As shown in the diagram an aluminium rod 'AB' is suspended horizontally between the two poles of a strong horse shoe magnet in such a way that the axis of rod is horizontal and the direction of the magnetic field is vertically upward. The rod is connected in series with a battery and a key.
State giving reason:
- What is observed when a current is passed through the aluminium rod from end B to end A?
- What change is observed in a situation in which the axis of the rod 'AB' is moved and aligned parallel to the magnetic field and current is passed in the rod in the same direction?
