Cork Screw Rule Imagine that a cork screw is pointed in the direction of a current. The direction of magnetic field is in the direction in which the screw is to be turned to move it in forward direction. The application of cork screw rule is depicted in Figure (a). figure (a) | |

The direction of the magnetic field intensity (H) due to a current carrying conductor can also be obtained by yet another method called Maxwell's Cork Screw Rule. Imagine that you are holding a right threaded screw in your hand. Let the screw be rotated such that the screw advances in the direction of current as shown in Figure (a). Then the direction of rotation of the screw gives the direction of the magnetic field as shown in the figure. Figure (a) Maxwell's cork screw rule FIGURE Magnetic flux (0) in the specimen of a conductor Magnetic flux lines are expressed in units of Webers and are denoted Figure Maxwell's cork screw by (Φ) | |
