Two conducting wire lops are concentric and lie in the same plane. The current in the outer loop is clockwise and increasing with time. The induced current in the inner loop is
  1. clockwise
  2. anticlockwise
  3. in a direction which depends on the ratio of the loop radii
  4. zero

Solution

Since the clockwise current is increasing, the induced current in the loop will be such as to oppose the change in magnetic flux and hence it will flow in anticlockwise direction.
