Question

20. Use Lenz?s law to answer the following questions concerning the direction of induced currents. Express your answers in terms of the letter labels a and t? in each part of Figure Pl.2O. (a) What is the direction of the induced current in the reactor R in the Figure p3 20 a when the bar magnet is moved to the Left (b) What is the direction of the current induced in the resistor R immediately after the switch S in Figure P31.20b is closed? (e) What is the direction of Lite induced current in the resistor R when the current I in Figure P51.20c decreases rapidly to zero?

Explanation / Answer

a)

direction of induced current is to the opposite of the bar magnet or to the right of the bar magnet

the direction is toward A point to B point of the resistor

b)

in this also

the direction of current is form point A to point B of the resistor

c)

the direction of induced current in the circuit is form point A to point B
