Left/Right Hand rule for Motor Principle

In summary, the Left/Right Hand rule for Motor Principle is a rule used to determine the direction of force, current, or magnetic field in a motor. It is based on the relationship between the direction of the magnetic field, current, and force in a motor. This rule is used in motors to determine the direction of the force or motion generated by the interaction between the magnetic field and the current, and can also be used to determine the direction of the current or magnetic field required to produce a desired motion or force. There is a difference between the Left and Right Hand rule in motors, as the Left Hand rule is used to determine the direction of the force or motion, while the Right Hand rule is used to determine the direction of the

Does anyone know where I can find information on the Left/Right Hand rule for Motor Principle, for Motor Principle not Electromagnetism because I know that one already. Appreciate any help given. Just need a link or even the concept of it.

Google "Fleming's Motor Rule". (I hope you realize that a motor is an example of electromagnetism!)

Try to find a copy of Lister's "Electric Circuits and Machines" sixth edition, ISBN 0-07-038028-7.

Personally, I think it's a must have for anybody studying or working in the field.
 

1. What is the Left/Right Hand rule for Motor Principle?

The Left/Right Hand rule for Motor Principle is a rule used to determine the direction of force, current, or magnetic field in a motor. It is based on the relationship between the direction of the magnetic field, current, and force in a motor.

2. How is the Left/Right Hand rule used in motors?

In motors, the Left/Right Hand rule is used to determine the direction of the force or motion generated by the interaction between the magnetic field and the current. It can also be used to determine the direction of the current or magnetic field required to produce a desired motion or force.

3. What is the difference between the Left and Right Hand rule in motors?

The Left Hand rule is used to determine the direction of the force or motion generated by the interaction between the magnetic field and the current in a motor. The Right Hand rule is used to determine the direction of the current or magnetic field required to produce a desired motion or force in a motor.

4. Is the Left/Right Hand rule applicable to all types of motors?

Yes, the Left/Right Hand rule is applicable to all types of motors as it is based on the fundamental principles of electromagnetism. It can be used for motors powered by direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) and can also be applied to both electric and magnetic motors.

5. How does the Left/Right Hand rule relate to the Law of Electromagnetic Induction?

The Left/Right Hand rule is closely related to the Law of Electromagnetic Induction, which states that a changing magnetic field will induce a current in a conductor. By using the Left/Right Hand rule, the direction of the induced current can be determined based on the direction of the magnetic field and the motion of the conductor, as well as the direction of the force acting on the conductor.
