A rectangular conducting loop is placed near a long wire carrying a current I as shown in Figure OQ31.3. If I decreases in time, what can be said of the current induced in the loop?


1.The direction of the current depends on the size of the loop.
2.The current is clockwise.
3.The current is counterclockwise.
4.The current is zero.
5.Nothing can be said about the current in the loop without more information.
