उत्तर

According to Lenz’s law, the direction of the induced emf is such that it tends to produce a current that opposes the change in the magnetic flux that produced it.
The area and, by extension, the magnetic flux associated with a deformed circular loop are smaller than those of a straight wire. Consequently, the magnetic field is pointing upwards because an induced current is set up in an anticlockwise manner.

A conducting wire XY of mass m and neglibile resistance slides smoothly on two parallel conducting wires as shown in figure. The closed circuit has a resistance R due to AC. AB and CD are perfect conductors. There is a ˆ. magnetic field `B = B(t)hatk`.

- Write down equation for the acceleration of the wire XY.
