A current-carrying solenoid is approaching a conducting loop, as shown in the figure. The direction of induced current as observed by an observer on the other side of the loop will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
The direction of current in the solenoid is anti-clockwise as seen by observer. On displacing it towards the loop a current in the loop will be induced in a direction so as to oppose the approach of solenoid. Therefore the direction of induced current as observed by the observer will be clockwise.
