A circular coil lies flat on a horizontal surface. A bar magnet is held fixed above the center of the coil with its north pole pointing downward. What is the direction of the induced current in the coil, as viewed from above?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the magnetic lines of force is downward due to north pole of magnet . magnetic flux is linked with the coil . But it is neither increasing nor decreasing . In other words , it is not changing . Coil too is fixed . Hence no current will be induced in the circular coil.

No current will be induced in the coil as the magnet is fixed . So , no flux will be changed in the coil.
