In the given figure current from A to B in the straight wire is decreasing. The direction of induced current in the loop A is
A
Clockwise
B
Anticlockwise
C
Changing
D
Nothing can be said
Answer
Anticlockwise
Explanation
Solution
When the current in the wire AB decrease the magnetic flux linked with the loop (Which is out of the page) will decrease. Hence the current induced in the loop must be anticlockwise to oppose the decrease in magnetic flux.
