Physics-Lenz's Law
NEET Physics Lenz's Law MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12
Consider a rectangular loop moving into a region of a uniform magnetic field directed normal to the plane of the loop away from the reader. According to Lenz's law, in which direction will the induced current flow in the loop?
A
Clockwise to oppose the increasing magnetic flux
B
Counter-clockwise to support the increasing magnetic flux
C
Clockwise to support the increasing magnetic flux
D
Counter-clockwise to oppose the increasing magnetic flux
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
According to Lenz's law, the induced current flows in a direction that opposes the change in magnetic flux. As the loop enters the magnetic field, the flux increases, and the current flows clockwise to oppose this increase.
