Two circular, similar, coaxial loops carry equal currents in the same direction. If the loops are brought nearer, what will happen?

A

P increases while in Q decreases

B

Q increases while in P decreases

C

both P and Q increases

D

both P and Q decreases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

When the coils P and Q are brought nearer, the magnetic flux linked with each coil will increase and so the induced current will try to decrease the flux and hence current in both P and Q decreases

Two circular loops lie side by side in the same plane. One is connected to a source that supplies an increasing current, the other is a simple closed ring. Is the induced current in the ring is in the same direction as that in the loop connected to the source or opposite? What if the current in the first loop is decreasing?
