Practice question

**Lenz's law** induced current direction opposes change in flux causing it, e = -N dΦ/dt negative sign, conservation of energy. Magnet moved towards coil south pole first, approaching south pole increasing flux into coil with south polarity, coil face nearest magnet becomes south pole to repel, opposing approach, so face becomes south pole, repelling magnet. Mutual inductance depends on the geometry (e.g., coil sizes, separation, orientation) and the medium’s permeability, affecting how much flux from one coil links with the other. Using Φ = B A cosθ, e = -N dΦ/dt = -N A dB/dt = B l v = N B A ω sinωt,
