Solution and Explanation
Lenz’s law states that the direction of the induced current is such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that produced it.
When the magnetic flux linked with a circuit changes, an electromotive force (EMF) is induced, and the induced current opposes this change.
When the magnetic flux linked with a circuit changes, an electromotive force (EMF) is induced, and the induced current opposes this change.
