The following questions reference the figure to the right as shown.
1. The magnetic field due to the bar magnet, in the configuration shown, is in general pointing which direction through the loop?
a) Upward
b) Downward
c) Because the magnet is moving, it does not have a field
2. As the magnet is falling toward the loop the magnitude of the magnetic field through the loop gets
a) Larger
b) Smaller
c) Staying the same
3. As the magnet is falling toward the loop, the magnetic flux through the loop is (Circle the correct options)
Decreasing / Increasing Upward / Downward
4. The induced flux always points in the opposite direction to the changes occurring through a loop, thus what direction does the induced flux point? (circle the correct answer)
Downward Upward
5. As the magnet moves, south pole first, toward a loop of wire, which of the following best predicts the possible current induced in the wire?
a) the induced current is clockwise, as viewed from above
b) the induced current is counterclockwise, as viewed from above
c) the induced current alternates between clockwise and counterclockwise
d) there is no current induced in the wire
e) the direction of the induced current cannot be determined with what you know
