The direction of current in the smaller circuit is

1. clockwise
2. anticlockwise
3. always changes with time
4. cannot be calculated E. answer required

Correct answer: anticlockwise

Solution

By Lenz’s law, the induced current in the smaller circuit must create a magnetic field that opposes the change in flux through it. For the given setup, that opposition requires an anticlockwise current.
