Answer
The direction of the induced current in a closed loop is given by Lenz's law. The given pairs of figures show the direction of the induced current when the North pole of a bar magnet is moved towards and away from a closed loop respectively.
Using Lenz's rule, the direction of the induced current in the given situations can be predicted as follows:
Using Lenz's rule, the direction of the induced current in the given situations can be predicted as follows:
- The direction of the induced current is along qrpq.
- The direction of the induced current is along prqp.
- The direction of the induced current is along yzxy.
- The direction of the induced current is along zyxz.
- The direction of the induced current is along xryx.
- No current is induced since the field lines are lying in the plane of the closed loop.

Figure. shows a cylindrical tube of volume V with adiabatic walls containing an ideal gas. The internal energy of this ideal gas is given by 1.5nRT. The tube is divided into two equal parts by a fixed diathermic wall. Initially, the pressure and the temperature are $P_1, T_1$ on the left and $p_2, T_2$ on the right. The system is left for sufficient time so that the temperature becomes equal on the two sides.
