Right Hand Palm Rule - Magnetic Effect of Current Class12, JEE & NEET
So far we have described the magnitude of the magnetic force on a moving electric charge, but not the direction. The magnetic field is a vector field, thus the force applied will be oriented in a particular direction. There is a clever way to determine this direction using nothing more than your right hand. The direction of the magnetic force $F$ is perpendicular to the plane formed by $v$ and $B$, as determined by the right-hand palm rule, which is illustrated in the figure. The right-hand rule...
