Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ Law says that a current produced by an induced emf moves in a direction so that its magnetic field opposes the original change in flux
A
Lenz’
B
Faraday’s
C
Ampere’s
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lenz’s law states that the direction of the electric current induced in a conductor by a changing magnetic field is such that the magnetic field created by the induced current opposes changes in the initial magnetic field. It is named after physicist Emil Lenz, who formulated it in 1834.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lenz’s law, in electromagnetism, statement that an induced electric current flows in a direction such that the current opposes the change that induced it. This law was deduced in 1834 by the Russian physicist Heinrich Friedrich Emil Lenz (1804–65).

Detailed explanation-3: -It was formulated by Heinrich Lenz in 1833. While Faraday’s law tells us the magnitude of the EMF produced, Lenz’s law tells us the direction that current will flow. It states that the direction is always such that it will oppose the change in flux which produced it.
