Lenz's law is a direct consequence of
AConservation of charge
BConservation of momentum
CConservation of energy
DConservation of magnetic monopoles
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Conservation of energy
The induced current always opposes the change in flux because if it aided the change, it would create energy from nothing — violating energy conservation.
