1. The diagram at right shows a copper wire loop held in place near a solenoid. The switch in the circuit containing the solenoid is initially open. a. Use Lenz' law to predict whether current will flow through the Wire wire of the loop in each of the following cases. Explain your loop reasoning. • just after the switch has been closed • a long time after the switch has been closed • just after the switch has been reopened • a long time after the switch has been reopened Solenoid b. For each of the cases in which you predicted that there will be an induced current, draw a diagram that illustrates: • the direction of the current through the wire of the loop, • the direction of the magnetic moment of the loop, and • the direction of the magnetic force exerted on the loop. Is the force on the wire loop in a direction that would tend to increase or decrease the change in net flux through the wire loop? 1.
