A rectangular metal loop with 0.050 resistance is placed next to one wire of the RC

A rectangular metal loop with 0.050 Ω resistance is placed next to one wire of the RC circuit shown in FIGURE P30.52. The capacitor is charged to 20 V with the polarity shown, then the switch is closed at t = 0 s.

a. What is the direction of current in the loop for t > 0 s?b. What is the current in the loop at t = 5.0 μs? Assume that only the circuit wire next to the loop is close enough to produce a significant magnetic field.
