Lenz's law says the induced current also exerts a mechanical force that does what?
AOpposes the motion
BSpeeds up the motion
CReverses the magnet's poles
DKeeps the motion unchanged
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Opposes the motion
The force from the induced current resists the relative motion, so work done against it becomes electrical energy.
