Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
A metallic ring is attached with the wall of a room. When the north pole of a magnet is brought near it, the induced current in the ring will be
A
first clockwise then anticlockwise
B
in clockwise direction
C
in anticlockwise direction
D
first anticlockwise then clockwise
