Q5 of 29 Page 282

The direction of current in a coil is shown in fig.Q.5. What type of magnetic pole as formed at the face that has a flow of current as shown in fig.Q-5?

In the figure given the direction of the current is in the anticlockwise direction. Therefore the North pole is formed at the face of the coil we are viewing.

The Figure below illustrates the same.
