Homework Statement
Conventional current flows in a ring in the direction indicated in the diagram (if you stand at location A, on the +x axis, and look toward the ring, current flows clockwise). At each of the locations labeled by a letter, use the right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field at that location, due to the current in the ring.
Homework Equations
Right hand rule
The Attempt at a Solution
I already know the answers, which was given to me:
Location A = -x
Location B = +x
Location C = -x
Location D = +x
Location E = +x
Location F = +x
But I don't know how to apply the right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field? Can anyone explain it to me thoroughly, please?
