    A magnet dropped into a coil of conducting wire along its axis will fall with an acceleration:

    A)  more than g     

    B)  equal to g

    C)  less than g         

    D)  none of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     When the magnet falls into the coil of a conducting wire the magnetic flux linked with the ring charges, and induced current is set up in the ring which opposes the downward motion of the magnet. Hence the acceleration of the magnet will be less than the acceleration due to gravity.
