Physics for IGCSE & O level - Magnets And Currents (Section 3 - No. 10)
How does the direction of the induced current relate to the motion of the magnet in electromagnetic induction?
The current's direction is unrelated to the magnet's motion.
The current's direction opposes the magnet's motion.
The current's direction is in the same direction as the magnet's motion.
The current's direction alternates based on the magnet's size.
Explanation
The direction of the induced current opposes the change in the magnetic field, which, in turn, opposes the magnet's motion (Lenz's Law).
