MCQ
In the expression e = –dΦ/dt, the -ve sign signifies ______ 
  • A
    The induced emf is produced only when magnetic flux decreases
  • The induced emf opposes the change in the magnetic flux
  • C
    The induced emf is opposite to the direction of the flux.
  • D
    The induced emf is independent of change in magnetic flux.

Answer

Correct option: B.
The induced emf opposes the change in the magnetic flux
In the expression e = –dΦ/dt, the -ve sign signifies the induced emf opposes the change in the magnetic flux.
