Question 1:
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 to find out the direction of the
magnetic field inside and outside the loop.
Answer:
Inside the loop = Pierce inside the table
Outside the loop = Appear to emerge out from the table
For downward direction of current flowing in the circular loop, the direction of
magnetic field lines will be as if they are emerging from the table outside the
loop and merging in the table inside the loop. Similarly, for upward direction
of current flowing in the circular loop, the direction of magnetic field lines will
be as if they are emerging from the table outside the loop and merging in the
table inside the loop, as shown in the given figure.
