Question

What is the direction of the current in the loop as the loop is pushed into the magnetic field from outside of the field. Answer as you face the loop.

Answer 1

according to Lenz's law, the induced current direction will be clockwise

Answer 2

Applying Fleming's right hand rule, the induced current would flow in a clockwise direction in the loop.

Step-by-step explanation:

Current, magnetic field and motion are mutually dependent and perpendicular to one another. This implies that when any two of these are available, the third would be automatically generated. So, in this case the magnetic field and motion induces the current. And applying Fleming's right hand rule make us to know its direction.
