Consider a circular loop of wire lying in the plane of the table. Let the current pass through the loop clockwise. Apply the right hand rule out the direction of magnetic field inside and outside the loop.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
N/a

A circular loop of wire lying in the plane of the table is shown in Figure given alongside. A battery is passing current through the loop of wire in the clockwire direction. Now, by applying Right-hand thumb rule to the left side of circular loop, we find that the direction of magnetic field around it is anticlockwise but the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of table (or plane of paper). And by applying Right-hand thumb rule to the right side of circular loop, we find that the direction of magnetic field around it is clockwise but again, the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of table (or plane of paper).
