Question

As shown below, a square loop of wire of side a moves through a uniform magnetic field of
magnitude B perpendicular to the page at constant velocity, vector v, directed to the right. Which
statement regarding the electric field induced in the wires is correct for the wires at the left and
right sides of the loop? (Hint: Be careful of what is being asked here. I am not asking for the
direction of current.)

a.
b.
C.
d.
e.
The electric field E is directed upwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
The electric field E is directed upwards in the right side and downwards in the left side of the
loop.
The electric field E is directed upwards in the left side and downwards in the right side of the
loop.
The electric field E is directed downwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
There is no electric field present in any side of the loop.
