The video tutorial explains Fleming's left hand rule, which uses conventional current to determine the direction of force in a magnetic field. It provides a step-by-step guide on how to position the fingers to identify the direction of force, with examples illustrating different scenarios. The tutorial also covers how forces act on a coil, leading to rotation, and concludes with a summary of the key points.
