Question
If the magnetic flux through a loop is increasing to the left, what direction of induced current will oppose this change?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
By Lenz's Law, the induced current will create its own magnetic field opposing the increase. To oppose an increasing leftward field, the induced field must point to the right, which requires counterclockwise current (by right-hand rule).
Hint
Oppose the increase by producing opposite field.
