The phenomenon of electromagnetic induction is
a. the process of charging a body.
b. the process of generating a magnetic field due to current passing through a coil.
c. producing induced current in a coil due to relative motion between a magnet and the coil.
d. the process of rotating a coil of an electric motor.

State the rule to determine the direction of an
(i) magnetic field produced around a straight conductor carrying current,
(ii) force experienced by a current-carrying straight conductor placed in a magnetic field which is perpendicular to it, and
(iii) current induced in a coil due to its rotation in a magnetic field.
Two circular coils A and B are placed closed to each other. If the current in coil A is changed, will some current be induced in the coil B? Give a reason
