Question

Please Include the explanations regarding the answer, and alterate scenerios relate to none answer choices would become the answer to the figure in the question.  

E16T.5 Loop A and a long, straight, current-carrying wire lie near each other on a tabletop in the top view shown below. Loop B is oriented perpendicular to the wire. Tabletop Wire Loop A Loop B Suppose that the current in the wire suddenly decreases. In what direction does the induced current flow in (a) Loop A? (b) Loop B? A. Clockwise. B. Counterclockwise. C. No current flows in this loop. D. One needs more information to answer.

Explanation / Answer

(a) in loop A induced current will be counterclockwise direction because field due to wire through A will be into the plane and that is decreasing so effort of induced current will be to increase it so direction of induced current will be Counterclockwise.

So option B is correct

(b) no flux is passing through B so change in flux will also not take place so no induced current.

So option C is correct.
