Observe the setup illustrated in the figure. When the switch is closed and subsequently opened after some time, the closed loop will exhibit

Step-by-step solution

When the switch is closed, current flows clockwise in the primary rectangular loop because the positive terminal of the battery (longer vertical line) is on the left. The current in the right vertical wire of the primary loop is directed downwards. By the right-hand grip rule, this creates a magnetic field directed into the plane of the paper at the position of the adjacent circular loop. As the switch is closed, the current increases from zero to a steady value, leading to an increase in the inward magnetic flux t
