tyvm for this explanation, I had to determine which magnet was acting as the north pole in a current between two magnets.

whyy is it that the magnetic field around the wire a circle? what happens when two circular magnetic fields interact, (like in power lines) and why do they react like that?

he's using conventional current, not electron flow.

my question is? is the current flow from + to - in DC.What direction current flow in Ac?Can any body tell me thanks.

Current flow is + to - in AC and DC. The difference in AC is the + and - reverse very quickly, 50 or 60 times per second, so the current also reverses back and forth with that frequency.

This Right Hand Curl Rule considers the conventional direction of current (+ to -) and not the real direction of current (- to +). So, you can just put your tumb pointing against the real current or just use your left hand instead.
