Question: What is the direction of the induced current when the magnetic field through a loop is increasing?

Options:

  1. Clockwise
  2. Counterclockwise
  3. No current
  4. Depends on the field strength

Correct Answer: Counterclockwise

Solution: 

According to Lenz\'s law, the induced current will flow in a direction that opposes the change in magnetic flux. If the magnetic field is increasing, the induced current will flow counterclockwise.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the direction of the induced current when the magnetic field through a loop is increasing?
  • Step 1: Understand that a magnetic field can change over time.
  • Step 2: Know that when the magnetic field through a loop increases, it means more magnetic lines are passing through the loop.
  • Step 3: Remember Lenz's law, which states that the induced current will flow in a direction that opposes the change in magnetic flux.
  • Step 4: Since the magnetic field is increasing, the induced current will try to create a magnetic field that opposes this increase.
  • Step 5: Determine the direction of the induced current: if the magnetic field is increasing into the loop, the induced current will flow counterclockwise to create a magnetic field out of the loop.
