Question

The figures below show two different situations where a current may be induced in a loop by Faraday's Law, with the direction determined by Lenz Law. The magnetic field is shown by the x's in Fig. 2.Choose true or false for each statement for the current in the loop. (The compass directions are defined in the usual way.) IN S fig ???? fig 2 ???? figl: Loop moving East, induced current b fig2: Loop moving South, induced current b fig2: Loop moving East, induced current b figl: Loop moving East, induced current a. fig2: Loop moving South, no induced current. figl: Magnet moving West, induced curent b

Answer 1

For Figure1, From right handed principle, the induced current in the direction of b, since magnetic field lines forms lines from north to south pole.(magnet moving west so induced current in b)

For figure 2, since the magnetic field is out of the page, induced current must be b direction( loop moving south so induced current in b)
