Vedclass · Answer

(A) The magnetic field $B$ is directed outwards (represented by dots) and is uniform. According to Lenz's Law, the induced current in the loop will create a magnetic field that opposes the change in magnetic flux. However, in this scenario, the magnetic field is constant. If we consider the force on a current-carrying element $d\vec{l}$ in a magnetic field $\vec{B}$, the force is given by $d\vec{F} = i(d\vec{l} 	imes \vec{B})$. For a circular loop with current $i$ flowing in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}$ directed outwards, the force on every small element $d\vec{l}$ will be directed radially outwards. This is because the cross product of the tangential current element and the outward magnetic field results in a force directed away from the center. Therefore, the loop will experience a net outward force, causing it to expand.
