Question
Explain how does the Lenz's law show the conservation of energy in the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction.

Solution
By applying a force to a moving magnetic field, which acts as an opposing force, Lenz's Law demonstrates how mechanical energy can be converted into electrical energy. Therefore, "it implies the law of conservation of energy."
