In mathematics and physics, the right-hand rule is a convention and a mnemonic, utilized to define the orientation of axes in three-dimensional space...

In electromagnetism, Fleming's right-hand rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor attached to a circuit moves in...

Fleming's left-hand rule for electric motors is one of a pair of visual mnemonics, the other being Fleming's right-hand rule for generators. They were...

fundamental to traffic flow, and are sometimes called the rule of the road. The terms right- and left-hand drive refer to the position of the driver and the steering...

normal to the plane (there are two normals, one on each side – the right-hand rule will determine which), and is a pseudovector. This has consequences...

right-handed orientation. A commonly used mnemonic for defining the positive orientation is the right-hand rule. Placing a somewhat closed right hand...

compass needle points, can be found from the current by the right-hand rule. If the right hand is wrapped around the wire so the thumb points in the direction...

predicted by Fleming's left hand rule for motors and Faraday's law of induction. Other mnemonics exist that use a right hand rule for predicting resulting...

right solution, the algorithm can be very slow. One effective rule for traversing mazes is the Hand On Wall Rule, also known as either the left-hand rule...

element dl of curve ∂Σ is defined by the right-hand rule as one that points with the fingers of the right hand when the thumb points in the direction of...
