Acurrent runs to the right in a long, straight wire. what is the direction of the
magnetic field at the point labeled y?

Into the page (Answer B)

Explanation:

Recall that the magnetic field that is created around a current conducting wire follows the right hand rule, where the direction of your fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field vectors when your thumb points in the direction of the current flow.

Use this to see that as you place the thumb of your right hand on the page pointing to the right (direction of the current in the wire). As you do so, you find the four fingers of your right hand entering the paper.
