Magnetism


Standard 6.4: 
How can we use the R
ight Hand Rule #2 to predict how 
moving charges are affected by magnetic fields (the direction of the magnetic force on the moving charge)? 







The thumb points in the direction that the charged particle moves in.

The Fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field. 

The direction of the palm faces the direction of the force on a positively charged particle.
