Question: The figures below show two different situations where a current may be induced in a loop according to Faraday's Law, with the direction given by

The figures below show two different situations where a current may be induced in a loop according to Faraday's Law, with the direction given by Lenz' Law. The magnetic field is shown by the x's in Fig. 2. Select true or false for the current in the loop. (The compass directions are defined in the usual way.)
fig
fig1: Magnet moving West, induced current 'a'.
q, fig1: Magnet moving East, induced current 'a'.
fig2: Loop moving South, no induced current.
False t
fig2: Loop moving North, induced current 'b'.
q, fig1: Loop moving West, induced current 'a'.
q, fig2: Loop moving East, induced current 'b'.
The induced current tends to oppose any change in PHI of the coil.
