Explanation

**Faraday's first law** emf induced when flux linking coil changes, second law magnitude proportional to rate of change, e = -dΦ/dt, for N turns e = -N dΦ/dt, flux Φ = B A cosθ, change can be due to B change, A change, or θ change, all produce emf. By Lenz’s law, the clockwise current opposes the decreasing flux by producing a south pole facing the receding north pole of the magnet, creating an attractive force. Using Φ = B A cosθ, e = -N dΦ/dt = -N A dB/dt = B l v = N B A ω sinωt, L = μ₀ N²A/l, M
