The current in the wire (blue) is directed to the right. A conducting loop (green) is in the plane of the wire. The current is increasing with time. Find the direction of current in the conducting loop, if any.

Sagot :

Image of the blue and green wire is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Counterclockwise

Explanation:

We are told that the current is increasing with time. Now, if the current is increasing, it means that the flux going through the wire loop will also be increasing.

Now, according to Lenz law of electromagnetic induction, from the right hand rule, the right thumb points In the counterclockwise direction and so the current will flow in the anti clockwise direction to counter the effect of the magnetic filed being projected outside the loop.
