I think it is a mistake to refer to magnetic field 'flowing. Magnetic fields just are, they can change, and these disturbances might move in space, but the field itself does not flow.
That being said, and assuming you meant to ask in which direction a magnetic field points the answer is that a magnetic field points towards the south pole of a magnet and away from the north pole. A magnetic field cannot be divergent (i.e. there are no sources) and any field line must be closed.
When using the right-hand rule for magnetic fields around a current-carrying wire, if you point your thumb in the direction of the current flow, the direction your fingers curl around the wire will indicate the direction of the magnetic field.
The operation of an electric motor depends on the interaction of magnetic fields, passing of electric current through coils of wire (armature), and the resulting electromagnetic forces that cause the motor to rotate. The direction of the current and the arrangement of the magnetic fields determine the direction of the rotation, while the flow of current and the strength of the magnetic fields dictate the speed and torque of the motor.
When electric currents flow through wires, they create magnetic fields around them. If the currents flow in the same direction, the magnetic fields produced by the wires will interact with each other, resulting in an attractive force between the wires. This phenomenon is known as the Ampère's force law.
Magnetic field lines represent the direction and strength of the magnetic field at different points in space. They form closed loops and flow from the north pole to the south pole outside of a magnet, and from the south pole to the north pole inside the magnet.
Yes, radial magnetic fields are measurable using techniques such as magnetic field sensors or magnetometers. These devices can detect and quantify the strength and direction of magnetic fields, including radial ones.
You can change the direction of a compass needle by creating a magnetic field with a current-carrying wire. By passing a current through the wire and holding it near the compass needle, you can influence the direction in which the needle points. The strength and orientation of the magnetic field generated by the wire can cause the compass needle to deflect from its original direction.
Magnetic fields do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves. The direction of the magnetic field lines represent the direction a north magnetic pole would move if placed in the field. Magnetic fields can only be produced by moving charges or currents, and not by stationary charges. Magnetic fields exert forces on moving charges according to the Lorentz force law.
Gravitational fields are always attractive, meaning they only exist in the direction of pulling objects closer together. Magnetic fields can exist in any direction in space, while electric fields can exist in a specified direction due to the sign of the charge producing it.
A ferromagnet is formed when the magnetic fields of electrons in a material align in the same direction. This alignment creates a permanent magnetic moment in the material, making it exhibit strong magnetic properties even in the absence of an external magnetic field.
direction of magnetic field
The direction of the magnetic field depends on the direction of the flow of electric charges. It follows the right-hand rule, where the thumb represents the current flow and the fingers represent the direction of the magnetic field lines.
A group of atoms with magnetic fields pointing in the same direction is called a magnetic domain. These domains are regions within a material where the magnetic moments of atoms align parallel to each other, creating a net magnetic moment for the domain.
