Problem

Two coaxial, close-spaced circular loops A and B have equal radii. Loop A carries a steady current that appears clockwise when observed from the right. Loop B is initially current-free and is quickly pushed towards loop A along the common axis. Which of the following correctly states (i) the direction of the induced current in loop B as seen from the right and (ii) the nature of the force experienced between the two loops? a) (i)(i) Anticlockwise; (ii)(ii) Attractive b) (i)(i) Anticlockwise; (ii)(ii) Repulsive c) (i)(i) Clockwise; (ii)(ii) Attractive d) (i)(i) Clockwise; (ii)(ii) Repulsive
