(b) As the magnet is moved in the direction indicated, how will the magnetic flux in the coil change?

Increased, decreased, or stayed the same

(c) What is the direction of the induced magnetic flux in the coil?

+x, -x, +y, -y, +z, -z

(d) What is the direction of the induced current in the coil when viewed from above the coil?

Clockwise, counterclockwise, no change

Explanation / Answer

a) yes coil will have field up

b) it will incease it gets closer

c) it wont like the increase so it will put its the other way
