Questions: Question 6 (1 point) A single-loop solenoid creates this magnetic field: Which image below shows the correct direction of the conventional current in

Solution Steps

The given magnetic field shows the field lines emerging from the top of the solenoid and entering at the bottom.

To determine the direction of conventional current, we can use the right-hand rule. Curl the fingers of your right hand in the direction of the magnetic field lines outside the solenoid (from top to bottom). Your extended thumb will point in the direction of the conventional current.

Applying the right-hand rule reveals that the conventional current flows counterclockwise when viewed from the top. This means current flows into the page on the left side (represented by X) and out of the page on the right side (represented by a dot).
