A conducting loop is held above a current carrying wire PQ as shown in the figure. Depict the direction of the current induced in the loop when the current in the wire PQ is constantly increasing.

Explanation

The current in the wire PQ is increasing constantly. So the magnetic flux linked with the conducting loop will also increase constantly. As per Lenz's law, the direction of the current induced in the loop will be such that the magnetic flux will tend to decrease.
Then this induced current will be anticlockwise [Use Maxwell's corkcrew rule to determine the direction of the magnetic fields due to the current in PQ, and due to the induced current in the loop].
