Lenz’s law of electromagnetic induction states that ______?

A. e.m.f. is induced in a circuit whenever there is a change in the magnetic flux linked with the circuit.
B. the induced current in a conductor is in such a direction as to oppose the change producing it
C. the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. in a circuit is proportional to the rate of change of the number of lines of force linking the circuit
D. a force is exerted on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic Held
E. the induced charge is constant for a fixed change of flux.

Correct Answer:

Option B – the induced current in a conductor is in such a direction as to oppose the change producing it
