An electron moves along the line AB which lies in the same plane as a circular loop of conducting wire as shown in figure. What will be the direction of the current induced (if any) in the loop?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
If electron is moving from left to right, the flux linked with the loop (which is into the page) will first increase and then decrease as the electron passes through it. So, the induced current in the loop will be first anti-clockwise and will change direction as the electron passes through.
