Answer:

Correct Answer: 9.Left to right or zero

Solution:

  1. When source is switched-off, left to right current decreases to zero. Therefore, from Lenz’s law, induced current will oppose the change i.e. it will be from left to right if there is some inductance in the circuit, otherwise it will be zero.
