JEE Main 2012 — Electromagnetic Induction Question with Solution
From: AIEEE 2012
Question
A coil is suspended in a uniform magnetic field, with the plane of the coil parallel to the magnetic lines of force. When a current is passed through the coil it starts oscillating; It is very difficult to stop. But if an aluminium plate is placed near to the coil, it stops. This is due to :
