Question

A square, flat loop of wire is pulled at constant velocity through a region of uniform magnetic field directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop as shown in the figure below. Which of the following statements are correct? (Select all that apply.)a.Current is induced in the loop in the clockwise direction.

b.Current is induced in the loop in the counterclockwise direction.
c.No sustained current is induced in the loop.
d.Charge separation occurs in the loop, with the top edge positive.
e.Charge separation occurs in the loop, with the top edge negative.

Answer 1

c.No sustained current is induced in the loop.

d.Charge separation occurs in the loop, with the top edge positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the lenz law the current induced in the circuit due to change or a motion in magnetic field is directed such as the it always opposes the change in the flux that by exerting a magnetic force in opposing direction.

`\epsilon= -(d\phi_B)/(dt)`

The current in opposite sides are opposite in nature thus cancelling each other. So, sustained current, in the loop.
