A conducting rectangular loop moves with constant velocity v in the +y direction

Question

A conducting rectangular loop moves with constant velocity v in the +y direction toward a wire with a constant current I as shown.

1)What is the direction of the induced loop current?

a) Counter Clockwise b)Clockwise c) No induced current

2)What is the direction of the force on the loop due to the long wire?

a) No net force b)Up c)Down d)Left e)Right

Explanation / Answer

a) the magnetic flux increase so the direction is counter clockwise

b) we have a closed loop so the net magnetic force is equal to zero.
