Question
Predict the directions of induced currents in metal rings 1 and 2 lying in the same plane where current I in the wire is increasing steadily.

Solution
Using Lenz’s law we can predict the direction of induced current in both the rings. Induce current oppose the cause of increasing of magnetic flux. So,
It will be clockwise in ring 1 and anticlockwise in ring 2
