In mathematics and physics, the right-hand rule is a convention and a mnemonic, utilized to define the orientation of axes in three-dimensional space...

In electromagnetism, Fleming's right-hand rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor attached to a circuit moves in...

Fleming's left-hand rule for electric motors is one of a pair of visual mnemonics, the other being Fleming's right-hand rule for generators. They were...

fundamental to traffic flow, and are sometimes called the rule of the road. The terms right- and left-hand drive refer to the position of the driver and the steering...

right-handed orientation. A commonly used mnemonic for defining the positive orientation is the right-hand rule. Placing a somewhat closed right hand...

normal to the plane (there are two normals, one on each side – the right-hand rule will determine which), and is a pseudovector. This has consequences...

eventually find the right solution, this algorithm can be extremely slow. One effective rule for traversing mazes is the Hand On Wall Rule, also known as either...

element dl of curve ∂Σ is defined by the right-hand rule as one that points with the fingers of the right hand when the thumb points in the direction of...

predicted by Fleming's left hand rule for motors and Faraday's law of induction. Other mnemonics exist that use a right hand rule for predicting resulting...

charge can be determined by a mnemonic known as the right-hand rule (see the figure). Using the right hand, pointing the thumb in the direction of the current...

compass needle points, can be found from the current by the right-hand rule. If the right hand is wrapped around the wire so the thumb points in the direction...

direction of the torque can be determined by using the right hand grip rule: if the fingers of the right hand are curled from the direction of the lever arm to...

is to the right and the magnetic field B is directed down, from the right hand rule the Lorentz force on positive charges F = q(v × B) is toward the rear...

triangulated surface by the unit normal and vertices (ordered by the right-hand rule) of the triangles using a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system...

construction of an optical field theory by James MacCullagh in 1839. Right-hand rule The curl of a vector field F, denoted by curl F, or ∇ × F {\displaystyle...

uncancelled currents from the circular currents throughout the material. The right-hand rule tells which direction positively-charged current flows. However, current...

traversal of ∂Σ is then counterclockwise (right-hand rule with thumb along z-axis). Then the integral on the left-hand side determines a positive flux of F...

The sense of angular velocity is conventionally specified by the right-hand rule, implying clockwise rotations (as viewed on the plane of rotation);...

constant. The direction of an induced current can be determined using the right-hand rule to show which direction of current flow would create a magnetic field...

counterclockwise in accordance with the right-hand rule. To apply the right-hand rule, place one's loosely clenched right hand above the object with the thumb...

space. Conventionally, it is given by the right-hand rule, where one simply points the forefinger of the right hand in the direction of a and the middle finger...

as positive. These ambiguities are resolved by the right-hand rule: With the palm of the right-hand toward the area of integration, and the index-finger...

the other way is based on the planet's positive pole, defined by the right-hand rule: The International Astronomical Union (IAU) defines the north pole...

velocity vector v and the B field according to the right-hand rule (in detail, if the fingers of the right hand are extended to point in the direction of v and...

previously by the mark using a left-hand rule for the boundary (similar to the right-hand rule but using the painter's left hand). This continues until an intersection...

of positive flux through the surface Σ, are related by a right-hand-rule. For the right hand the fingers circulate along ∂Σ and the thumb is directed...

north. One common convention is to use the "right-hand rule" (RHR) where the plane dips down towards the right when facing the strike direction, or that...

transatlantic radio transmission was made, and also established the right-hand rule used in physics. He was the eldest of seven children of James Fleming...
