When current passing through a coil increases, direction of induced emf is

Answer»

in the direction of existing current.
in the opposite direction of existing current
perpendicular to the FLOW of current.
indefinite

Solution :Because SELF induced emf is given by
`epsilon=-L(DI)/(DT)`
Here current passing through the coil, increases with time and so `((dI)/(dt)) gt 0 rArr epsilon lt 0 rArr` self induced emf will be in a direction opposite to the flow of current, so that increase in the current through the coil can be OPPOSED, according to Lenz.s law.
