Magnetic Field of a Long Wire: A long straight wire carrying a 4-A current is placed along the x-axis as shown in the figure. What is the direction of the magnetic field at a point P due to this wire?
A. into the plane of the page B. out of the plane of the page C. along the -x-axis D. along the +x-axis E. along the +y-axis
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. 
Suppose that the current in the wire suddenly decreases. In what direction does the induced current flow in
A. Clockwise. B. Counterclockwise. C. No current flows in this loop. D. One needs more information to answer.
