A wire loop is suspended from a string that is attached to point P in the drawing. When released, the loop swings downward, from left to right, through a uniform magnetic field, with the plane of the loop remaining perpendicular to the plane of the paper at all times. Determine the direction of the current induced in the loop as it swings past the locations labeled (a) I and (b) II. Specify the direction of the current in terms of the points x, y, and z on the loop (e.g., x→y→z or z→y→x). The points x, y, and z lie behind the plane of the paper. What is the direction of the induced current at the locations (c) I and (d) II when the loop swings back, from right to left?

Answer:

a

[tex]y \to z \to x[/tex]

b

[tex]x \to z \to y[/tex]

Explanation:

Now looking at the diagram let take that the magnetic field is moving in the x-axis

Now the magnetic force is mathematically represented as

[tex]F = I L[/tex] x B

Note (The x is showing cross product )

Note the force(y-axis) is perpendicular to the field direction (x-axis)

Now when the loop is swinging forward

The motion of the loop is from y to z to to x to y

Now since the force is perpendicular to the motion(velocity) of the loop

Hence the force would be from z to y and back to z

and from lenze law the induce current opposes the force so the direction will be from y to z to x

Now when the loop is swinging backward

The motion of the induced current will now be x to z to y
