A light disc made of aluminium (a non-magnetic material) is kept horizontally and is free to rotate about its axis as shown in the figure. A strong magnet is held vertically at a point above

the disc away from its axis. On revolving the magnet about the axis of the disc, the disc will (Figure is schematic and not drawn to scale.).

the disc away from its axis. On revolving the magnet about the axis of the disc, the disc will (Figure is schematic and not drawn to scale.).
- rotate in the direction opposite to the direction of magnet’s motion
- rotate in the same direction as the direction of magnet’s motion
- not rotate and its temperature will remain unchanged
- not rotate but its temperature will slowly rise.
Answer
(B) rotate in the same direction as the direction of magnet’s motion
