Not really? I just used the right hand rule and Lenz's law
The Attempt at a Solution
By the right hand rule, outside of loop 1, the magnetic field is out of the page. However, increasing resistance means that field is weakening. We know by Lenz's law that loop 2 will try to replace that field, so outside of loop two should be an out of the page magnetic field. This means the current direction is Clockwise, giving choice B
However, the answer is choice A. Why?
