| For our example, we found that $V_{ind}$ was positive. So this means that we would stick our thumb in the -x direction (pointing to the left) and then curl our fingers around in a circle. You should find the the current would go into the page at the top of the coil and would come back out of the page at the bottom of the coil. Just because it's often hard to draw the current direction in 3D, we often will just notate where on the coil the current is into/out of the page. | For our example, we found that $V_{ind}$ was positive.

| The right hand rule for determining the induced current direction is definitely more complicated than our previous right hand rules; however, this table helps break the process down into manageable chunks. We definitely recommend writing out each step in this way - otherwise it is easy to miss a step or a negative sign, which will throw off your final result. | The right hand rule for determining the induced current direction is definitely more complicated than our previous right hand rules; however, this table helps break the process down into manageable chunks.
