Problem

A long solenoid carries a current that is steadily increasing. Its right-hand end behaves as a north pole. A small circular conducting loop is held coaxially just outside this end. As viewed from the right-hand side, what is the direction of the induced current in the loop while the solenoid current is increasing? (a) Anticlockwise\text{Anticlockwise} (b) Clockwise\text{Clockwise} (c) No current is induced\text{No current is induced} (d) Direction keeps alternating\text{Direction keeps alternating}
