Question
Give the direction in which induced current flows in the wire loop, when the magnet moves towards the loop as shown.

Answer

The current induced in the coil will oppose the approach of magnet, so this nearer face of the coil will act as North Pole, therefore on viewing from the magnet side the current in the coil will be anticlockwise.

Answer the following:
What are the forms of energy into which the electrical energy of the atmosphere is dissipated during a lightning? $($Hint: The earth has an electric field of about $100Vm^{–1}$ at its surface in the downward direction, corresponding to a surface charge density $= –10^{–9}Cm^{–2}$​​​​​​​. Due to the slight conductivity of the atmosphere up to about $50\ km \ ($beyond which it is good conductor$),$ about $+ 1800C$ is pumped every second into the earth as a whole. The earth, however, does not get discharged since thunderstorms and lightning occurring continually all over the globe pump an equal amount of negative charge on the earth.$)$
