Which law is used in finding the direction of current in an a.c. generator?(a) Maxwell’s law(b) Lenz’s law(c) Corkscrew law(d) Ampere circuital lawI had been asked this question in an online interview.My enquiry is from Electromagnetic Induction topic in portion Electromagnetic Induction of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Correct answer is (b) Lenz’s law

Explanation: In an a.c. generator, induced current due to a CHANGE of MAGNETIC flux linked with a closed CIRCUIT can be found out using Lenz’s law. Lenz’s law, in electromagnetism, STATEMENT that an induced electric current flows in a DIRECTION such that the current opposes the change that induced it.
