Understanding Fleming's Left Hand Rule and the Motor Effect

The video tutorial explains the interaction between a conducting wire and an external magnetic field, focusing on the motor effect. It covers how magnetic fields are produced by permanent magnets and current-carrying wires, and how these fields interact to create forces. The tutorial introduces Fleming's left hand rule to determine the direction of force on a conductor. It also discusses factors affecting the force, such as current size, magnetic field strength, and the angle between current and field. The video concludes with a summary of key concepts.
