D)None are correct.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a loop of copper wire moves in a straight line but does not rotate, the magnetic flux through the loop remains constant and thus, no induced emf is produced in the loop. In all other scenarios - rotation, linear motion and rotation with linear motion - there is a change in the magnetic flux through the loop which produces an induced emf.
