Question
A planar loop of rectangular shape is moved within the region of a uniform magnetic field acting perpendicular to its plane. What is the direction and magnitude of the current induced in it?

Solution
The magnetic flux linked with a circuit is not changing with time so there will be no induced current in the loop.

- Assertion (A): The deflecting torque acting on a current-carrying loop is zero when its plane is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field.
- Reason (R): The deflecting torque acting on a loop of the magnetic moment `vecm` in a magnetic field `vecB` is given by the dot product of `vecm` and `vecB`.
