The north pole of a magnet is falling on a metallic ring as shown in the figure. The direction of induced current, if looked from upside in the ring will be

- A Anticlockwise
- B Clockwise
- C Clockwise or anticlockwise depending on metal of the ring.
- D No induced current
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Anticlockwise
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A
According to Lenz's law the end of the ring towards the magnet acts as the N -pole so that the direction of the induced current is anti clock wise when viewed from above.
