6.10 sketch and recognise magnetic field patterns for a straight wire, a flat circular coil and a solenoid when each is carrying a current

Straight wire

A magnetic field around a straight wire is a series of circles around the wire


Flat circular coil

A magnetic field around a flat circular coil is pretty much the same as a single wire, only there are two


Solenoid

A magnetic field around a solenoid is similar to a magnetic field around a bar magnet.

NOTE: Ignore the B=thing but do take note of where the current goes in and out represented by "I"
