What affects the direction of the current moving through a wire? Check all that apply

... the direction the wire moves in

... the thickness of the wire

... the direction of the magnetic field

... the type of magnet

... the direction of the needle on an ammeter

Answer : Option A) The direction the wire moves in

and Option C) the direction of the magnetic field.

Explanation : The direction of current flowing through the wire mainly depens on two factors which are i) direction of the wire moves in and ii) the direction of magnetic field.

The flow of current will occur in the direction of the wire through which it is moving in, whereas the direction of magnetic field will be in concentric circles around the direction of current passing through the wire.
