Crosses ⊗ represent a uniform magnetic field directed into the paper. A conductor XY moves in the field toward right side. Find the direction of induced current in the conductor. Name the rule you applied. What will be the direction of current if the direction of field and the direction of motion of the conductor both are reversed?
Answer:
According to Fleming’s right hand rule, the direction of induced current in the conductor will be from Y to X.
Even if the direction of magnetic field and the direction of motion are reversed, the direction of induced current will still be the same ie., from Y to X.
