The answer too makes explicit reference to the right hand rule to define clockwise. One answer to Applying the right-hand rule for magnetic forces explicitly uses the right hand rule, and explains that it is useful because the direction is " counter-clockwise or clockwise depending on what side of the plane you are looking at ".
Why and how does the 'clock rule' of electromagnetism (i.e. current flows clockwise as seen from the south pole of an electromagnet) work? [duplicate] Ask Question Asked 10 years, 1 month ago Modified 9 years, 7 months ago
My physics book states that by convention a clockwise moment is said to be negative and an anti-clockwise moment is said to be positive. I'm curious about the origin of this convention.
I was watching a YouTube video on the difference of winding a coil clockwise vs winding a coil counter clockwise. It said the poles would be opposite using the same battery configuration.
The north and south pole of a solenoid depends on two factors. One, the direction of the current flow and two, the direction of the winding (clockwise or counter-clockwise). Start by determine the positive pole of the power source (e.g: battery), then the end of the solenoid that you are going to connect to it. Now, looking down the solenoid tube determine what direction is the winding. If ...
hi, i'm having a little trouble with this problem. the correct answer is D, but i got B because i'm confused about the signs of T2 and T1. it makes sense to me that T2 is positive in the equation, because it's a negative quantity, and the pulley will rotate clockwise, and it avoids a double negative. but why is T1 being subtracted? it's a ...
