alleryLenz's law states the induced current direction is such that it:
AAids the change in flux
BOPPOSES the change in flux that produced it
CHas no direction
DFlows randomly
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. OPPOSES the change in flux that produced it
**Lenz's law:** induced current opposes the change in flux.
**Consequence of energy conservation:** if it aided the change, energy would be created from nothing.
The minus sign in Faraday's law.
