    This document discusses using the right hand grip rule and plotting compasses to determine the direction of current flow and magnetic fields around current-carrying wires. It contains diagrams of wires with compasses placed around or near them and asks the reader to determine the direction of current flow and how the compasses would point based on principles of electromagnetism. The document tests the reader's understanding of using conventions like the right hand grip rule to analyze circuits and electromagnets.

    5 Right hand grip rule

    6 Diagrams 1, 2 & 3 show plotting compasses arranged on a small platform around a vertical wire A B.
    In each case say whether a current is flowing through the conductor, and if so in what direction.
    Complete each diagram with a plus and minus sign in the circles at each end of the wire. The pointed
    end of the compass needle is the north-seeking pole.

    7 Diagrams 4, 5 & 6 show plotting compasses arranged at random on a platform around a vertical wire.
    In each case complete the diagram by adding arrows to show the direction in which the needle of
    each plotting compass will point. The pointed end of the compass needle is the north-seeking pole.

    8 Diagrams 1 to 4 below show horizontal wires. In each case a plotting compass is placed just above
    the wire.
    In each case say whether the wire carries a current, and if so the direction in which the current is
    flowing. Add plus and minus signs to the diagrams in which there is evidence of current flow.
