See the attached file.
Three loops of wire are located near a long straight current-carrying wire, as shown in the attachment. Indicate below the direction of the induced current in the specified loop, depending on the action described relating to the current in the wire or the motion of the loops. Please explain your answer.

1. If the current in the wire is constant, but Loop A is moving away from the wire, the induced current in Loop A will be:

2. If the current in the wire is decreasing, the induced current in Loop C will be:

3. If the current in the wire is constant, the induced current in Loop B will be:

4. If the current in the wire is decreasing, the induced current in Loop A will be:

5. If the current in the wire is constant, but Loop C is moving to the left, the induced current in Loop C will be:?

Three loops of wire are located near a long straight current-carrying wire. Indicate below the direction of the induced current in the specified loop, depending on the action described relating to the current in the wire or the motion of the loops

The direction of magnetic field due to the current in the wire is shown. It is out of the page in upper part of wire and into the plane in lower part of wire.
The direction of induced current is givne by Lenz law Which says that the induced current will always oppose the 'cause' due to which it is produced.
