An irregular shaped wire PQRS placed in ...

An irregular shaped wire PQRS placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the paper changes into a circular shape. What will be the direction of the induced current in the loop.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Induced current will flow in the direction PSRQP.
Reason : Magnetic flux linked with the wire incresses due to increase in area of the loop. Induced current will oppose this.
