H

A coil and a bar magnet are fixed to the same trolley. The magnet cannot move relative to the coil. The trolley accelerates along a straight track. There is no other changing magnetic field.

Which statement explains the ammeter reading?

[1]
A

It increases because the speed of the trolley is increasing.

B

It remains non-zero because the magnet is inside the coil.

C

It reverses because acceleration changes the magnet's poles.

D

It remains zero because the field through the coil is unchanged.
