A coil is connected to an analogue centre zero ammeter. A magnet is dropped (North pole first) so that it falls vertically and completely through the coil. What would be observe on the ammeter?
The ammeter's needle would first be deflected one way, then as the direction of the current reversed, it would deflect the other way.
