A circular coil is placed near a current carrying conductor, both lying on the plane of the paper. The current is flowing through the conductor in such a way that the induced current in the loop is clockwise as shown in the figure. The current in the wire is,

  1. A time dependent and downward.
  2. B steady and upward.
  3. C An alternating current.
  4. D None of these
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) time dependent and downward.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hint : If current is increasing in upward direction, so magnetic field is increasing in out of plane in order to oppose it induced current will be in clockwise direction Similarly if current is decreasing in downward direction, so magnetic field is decreasing into the plane in…
