An electron moves on a straight line path `XY` as shown. The `abcd` is a adjacent to the path of electron. What will be the direction of current, if any, induced in the coil?

A

ADCB

B

The current will reverse its direction as the electron goes past the coil

C

No current induced

D

ABCD

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

When `e^(-)` comes closer to the coil the induced current will be anticlockwise
When `e^(-)` goes farther from the coil the induced current will be clockwise.
