Can you explain to me why the induced current moves in the counter clock direction?

**Problem 5: Magnetic Induction in a Conducting Ring**

A circular conducting ring of diameter \( d = 2.60 \, \text{m} \) and resistance of \( 3.00 \, \Omega \) is placed in an increasing magnetic field \( B(t) = 2.00t \), directed into the page. The magnetic field is a function of time. The change in the magnetic field is given by:
\[
\frac{\Delta B}{\Delta t} = 2.00 \, \text{T/s}
\]

**a) Find the magnetic flux through the ring at \( t = 1.00 \, \text{s} \):**  
\[
\Phi_B = 10.6 \, \text{Wb}
\]

**b) Find the EMF (i.e., voltage) induced in the ring:**  
\[
\mathcal{E} = 10.6 \, \text{V}
\]

**c) Find the current induced in the ring:**  
\[
I = 3.54 \, \text{A}
\]

**d) What is the direction of the induced current?**  
CCW (Counterclockwise)

**e) What is the direction of the induced magnetic field generated by the induced current at the center of the ring?**  
Out of page

**f) Find the magnitude of the induced magnetic field at the center of the ring:**  
\[
B = 1.71 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T}
\]

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram depicts a circular ring with a diameter \( d \), surrounded by a magnetic field \( B(t) \) indicated by \( \times \) symbols (representing a magnetic field directed into the page). The illustration shows the increasing magnetic field affecting the ring, leading to an induction of EMF and current as explained in the solutions above.
