### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Current-Carrying Circular Loop**: - A circular loop carrying electric current generates a magnetic field around it. The direction of the current flow is crucial in determining the direction of the magnetic field lines. 2. **Magnetic Field Lines Around a Straight Wire**: - First, consider a straight current-carrying wire. According to the right-hand thumb rule, if you point your thumb in the direction of the current, your fingers curl around the wire in the direction of the magnetic field lines. This creates concentric circles around the wire. ...
