EasyState the rule to determine the direction of magnetic field produced around a current-carrying conductor.
(N/A) The rule used is the $Right-Hand$ $Thumb$ $Rule$.
Imagine a current-carrying conductor held in your right hand such that the thumb points in the direction of the current. Then,the curl of your fingers encircling the conductor will give the direction of the magnetic field lines around the conductor.
