MCQ
Define Maxwell's Corkscrew rule.
  • A
    Consider ourselves driving a Corkscrew in direction of current, then direction of rotation of Corkscrew is direction of magnetic field.
  • B
    Consider ourselves holding a corkscrew in our hand so the Corkscrew is direction of magnetic field and hands in direction of current.
  • C
    Consider ourselves driving a Corkscrew in direction of magnetic field, then direction of rotation of Corkscrew is direction of current.
  • D
    All options are correct.

Answer

  1. Consider ourselves driving a Corkscrew in direction of current, then direction of rotation of Corkscrew is direction of magnetic field
