Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
When a conductor moves through a magnetic field, an electric current is induced in it, according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. The direction of the induced current is determined using Fleming's right-hand rule. When a conductor moves in a magnetic field, Fleming's right-hand rule shows the direction of the induced current. It can be used to determine the current direction in a generator's winding. The thumb is pointing in the direction of the conductor's motion.
Fleming's right-hand rule determines the direction of induced current in a straight conductor.
It states, “If we stretch the thumb, forefinger, and middle finger of the right hand at right angles to one another, the forefinger will point in the direction of the magnetic field. The thumb then indicates the direction of conductor motion (force), the forefinger the direction of magnetic field, and the middle finger the direction of induced current.”
