Each of the Four Diagrams Below Shows a Magnetic Field PP

Question 229

Multiple Choice

Each of the four diagrams below shows a magnetic field pattern in a certain region of space (assume that the field is independent of position above and below the drawing's plane) .
What is the sign of these fields' curl component at point PP on each diagram in the direction facing us? (Hint: Draw a cross-sectional view of a small curl-meter centered on the point in question, and sketch the magnetic field vectors at the midpoint of each of the curl-meter's four sides in the drawing's plane. Don't worry about how we might create such a magnetic field.)
