Right Hand Rule

[masterlink512]

That hand is giving the finger.

[Cire909]

A = magnetic force

B = velocity vector or direction of motion

C = magnetic field

This is derived from the equation Fm = qvBsin(theta), which is used to find the electromagnetic force for a particle in a field. The sin(theta) is the angle between the magnetic field and velocity vector because it is a cross product.

@Cire909 speaking from an electromagnetism point of view...

how is this derived? i've found countless diagrams and descriptions of the rule, but i can find no link explained between the XYZ reference frame and angular momentum.

[chenwei1996]

what are the A, B ,C representing?

[neeor10]

this is so much easier lol. I'll probably get carpal tunnel during the test If i used the other one! haha

you saved my day , thanks :)

huh???

[bluedeinonychus]

wow i just spent 15 minutes on the web trying to understand what this video showed in 10 seconds... youtube rocks!

[woowalks]

ok a is the direction of electric current, and c is the rotation right? b is the perpendicular magnetic field is it?

[meusieurbouffon]

it's physics ;)
