A conducting wire is moving towards right in a magnetic field `B`. The direction of induced current in the wire is shown in the figure. The direction of magnetic field will be

A

In the plane of paper pointing towards right

B

In the plane of paper pointing towards left

C

perpendicular to the plane of paper and downwards

D

perpendicular to the plane of paper and upwards

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

According to fleming right hand rule, the direction of `B` will be perpendicular to the plane of paper and act downward.
