Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 12

Assertion (A): When the North-pole of a bar magnet is pushed towards a coil, the induced current flows in a direction that opposes the motion of the magnet. | Reason (R): According to Lenz's law, the induced emf generates a current that opposes the change in magnetic flux that caused it.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.
