5. A loop of wire (whose plane is in the xy plane), is moving in the +x direction through a uniform B-field (5.0 T, directed into the xy plane...ie., along the -z axis). What is direction of the induced current in the loop?
a. Clockwise when viewed from the front
b. Counterclockwise when viewed from the front
c. The current direction alternates back and forth in the
loop
d. There is no induced current in the loop
6. Refer to the loop in question #5. If the region of space in
which the B-field exists is confined, so that the loop is not in
the field, then it enters the field, and finally exits the field,
determine the direction of the induced current during the motion of
the loop.
a. Clockwise when viewed from the front
b. Counterclockwise when viewed from the front
c. The current direction alternates back and forth in the
loop
d. There is no current in the loop
