Solution
The correct option is C Increase When the core is pulled out of solenoid, then the flux through it will decrease. So, according to Lenz's law, an emf is induced to increase the flux through the core. Magnetic flux increases with the increase in the current flowing through the coil. Thus change in current will increase.
