  1. Current flows to the right (I) Magnetic Field (B) From the conventional current, we have created practical ways to find the shape and direction of a magnetic field around a straight wire and a solenoid. 2D Conventional current uses right hand rule e- e- e-

  2. Current flow (I) Current flow (I) Now, looking at a wire: Looking at the top: INCOMING current Looking at the bottom: OUTGOING current

  3. Looking at the bottom: OUTGOING current Looking at the top: INCOMING current ARROW HEAD ARROW TAIL WITH FEATHERS

  4. In the right hand, your fingers have roles in determining the magnetic field: Thumb: The thumb points in the same direction as the conventional current (I). 4 fingers: The four fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field (B).

  7. N S I Now since there are magnetic fields surrounding the wire, we can pinpoint the north and south poles. Reminder: the magnetic fields start at the north pole and head to the south pole in a bar magnet. S S S N N N

  11. B B Please note that the magnetic fields generated by a wire are circular not elliptical.

  12. 2. RIGHT-HAND RULE: How to determine the magnetic fields around a solenoid or an electromagnet But first: what is a solenoid? Junk yard trucks

  13. Components of a solenoid: a solenoid is made of an iron core wrapped in electrical wire. Iron core. Copper wire wrapped around the core. Power source, e.g. battery.

  15. In the right hand, your fingers have roles in determining the magnetic field: 4 fingers: The four fingers point in the same direction as the conventional current (I). Thumb: The thumb points in the direction of the magnetic field (B), it points north. I B In the case of a solenoid, a magnetic field is also generated. N

  16. So, here is a solenoid with an iron core wrapped in a wire. The letter I indicates the direction of the current. e- e- e- e- e- I

  17. Now, lets look at the solenoids from an INGOING/OUTGOING perspective. I

  21. Electromagnet: So, an electromagnet is a magnet created by an electrical current passing through a solenoid. It was invented by William Sturgeon in 1823.
