Current produced by moving the loop of wire across a magnetic field is called
Correct answer: C. induced current
- A. AC current
- B. DC current
- C. induced current
- D. Mean square current
Explanation
When a loop of wire moves across a magnetic field or experiences a change in magnetic flux, it induces an electromotive force (EMF) according to Faraday's law. The induced EMF leads to the flow of current in the wire, and this current is referred to as induced current.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
