Identify the law which is used to find out the direction of eddy currents.(a) Lenz’s law(b) Faraday’s law(c) Ampere circuital law(d) Maxwell’s lawThe question was posed to me in an internship interview.The doubt is from Electromagnetic Induction topic in division Electromagnetic Induction of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (a) LENZ’s LAW

The best I can explain: Eddy currents are the currents induced in solid masses when the magnetic flux threading through them changes. Eddy currents also OPPOSE the change in magnetic flux, so their direction is GIVEN by Lenz’s law.
