Two identical circular coils and are kept on a horizontal tube side by side without touching each other. If the current in the coil increases with time, in response, the coil 

Options
- Ais attracted by
- Bremains stationary
- Cis repelled
- Drotates
Correct answer
C. is repelled
Step-by-step solution
As the current in coil changes, the magnetic flux linked with coil changes, hence as a result current induces in coil . The direction of induced current in coil is opposite to that of the direction of current in coil as shown in figure

Due to currents in opposite directions in the near by sides of the coil, the coil is repelled.

Due to currents in opposite directions in the near by sides of the coil, the coil is repelled.
