If your metal car moves over a wide, closed loop of wire embedded in a road surface, is the magnetic field of the Earth within the loop altered? Does this produce a current pulse?

Answer:

Yes it produces current

Step-by-step explanation:

Because If this enclosed field is somehow changed, then following the law of electromagnetic induction, a pulse of current will be produced in the loop. Dues to a change is produced in the electric field when the iron parts of a car pass over it, momentarily increasing the strength of the field.
