Consider a loop of wire with a resistor. in the same plane, (with switch s closed) a long wire has a current i flowing from right to left. bancroft (acb3943) – hw06 – lai – (55310) 3 r i s if switch s is open for a long period of time, and then suddenly closed, what is the direction of the induced current through r as the current i rapidly increases? 1. the current flows left to right through r. 2. the current flows right to left through r. 3. there is no current flow.
