A square loop of wire (side length a) lies on a table, a distance s from a very long straight wire, which carries a current I. 1. How large is the flux through the loop? 2. If you pull the loop away from the wire in a direction perpendicular to the wire, in what direction will the induced current in the loop flow? 3. If you pull the loop to the right along the wire without changing the distance s, how much current will be induced?

induction in a square loop

 

A square loop of wire (side length a) lies on a table, a distance s from a very long straight wire, which carries a current I.
1. How large is the flux through the loop?
2. If you pull the loop away from the wire in a direction perpendicular to the wire, in what direction will the induced
current in the loop flow?
3. If you pull the loop to the right along the wire without changing the distance s, how much current will be induced?
