A square loop of side 12 cm with its sides parallel to X and Y axes is moved with a velocity of 8cms^-1 in the positive x- direction in an enviornment containing a magnetic field in the positive z- direction. The field is neither uniform in space nor constant in time. it has a gradient of 10^-3Tcm^-1 along the negative x-direction (that is it increases by 10^-3 T cm^-1 as one moves in the negative x-direction) and it is decreasing in time at the rate of 10^-3T s^-1 . Determine the direction and magnitude of the induced current in the loop if its resistance is 4.50 m Omega .
