Answer 1

Answer will be...anticlockwise

Answer 2

To solve such type of questions, apply the steps ;

1. Use lenz law (states that the direction of induced current in such that it opposes the cause which produces it).

2. Anticlockwise current produces north pole and clockwise produce south pole.

Now, coming to the question we can see that the north pole of the bar magnet is approaching towards the coil, hence according to the lenz law the direction of current is such that is produce north pole to oppose the cause.

*Hence, the current will flow in anticlockwise direction*
