Solution
The correct option is C
the direction of the induced emf
Explanation for correct solution:
Fleming's Right-hand rule is used to find the direction of induced emf.
According to this rule, "If we hold our right-hand forefinger, middle finger, and thumb in mutually perpendicular directions to each other then, then if the forefinger represents the direction of the magnetic field in which the conductor is placed and the thumb represents the direction of motion of the conductor, then the middle finger represents the direction of induced emf in the conductor.
