A wire with a constant in time current I is carrying current to North. A conducting loop of wire is moving towards the wire starting from some point to the west. Induced current in this loop is:

a. Clockwise
b. Counterclockwise
c. Zero
d. To the South
e. To the East.

The direction of induced current in this loop is clockwise.

Option (a) is correct

Explanation:

Given:

Wire with a constant current

Direction of current is north

A loop of wire is moving towards the wire from north to west

According to the lenz law,

Generated induced emf always try to oppose the current means if magnetic flux is increasing so induced emf generate such a way that reduce the magnetic flux.

In our case magnetic field flux is increase so induced current in this loop is in clockwise direction.

Therefore, the direction of induced current in this loop is clockwise.
