(13) In the diagram below, a magnetic field links a circular copper ring. The field is
uniform over the area of the ring and its strength is increasing in magnitude at a steady
rate.

(ii) Draw on the diagram, an arrow to show the direction of the induced current in the
copper ring. Explain how you determined the direction of the induced current.
(iii) The radius of the copper ring is 0.12 m and its resistance is 1.5 × 10–2 Ω. The field
strength is increasing at rate of 1.8 × 10–3 T s–1. Calculate the value of the induced

(14) (a) State Lenz’s law.
(b) A long solenoid is connected in series with a battery and a switch S. Several loops of wire
are wrapped around the solenoid close to its midpoint as shown below.
The ends of the wire are connected to a high resistance voltmeter V that has a centre zero scale
(as shown in the inset diagram). The switch S is closed and it is observed that the needle on V
moves to the right and then drops back to zero.
Describe and explain, the deflection on the voltmeter when the switch S is re-opened.
