Awhina is constructing an electromagnet to demonstrate at the upcoming science fair. She is using wire, a nail, and a battery. Awhina also wants to make a chart to show which direction the magnetic field is flowing for each of her electromagnets. Describe how she would determine the direction of the magnetic field for the electromagnets. Include a description of how the magnetic field appears around the looped wire.
