  1. In this case, the magnetic flux through the loop is upward and, as
    the south pole moves closer to the loop, the magnetic field strength
    increases so the magnetic flux through the loop increases upward.
    How do we oppose a change of more flux upward? By creating flux
    downward. Therefore, in accordance with the right-hand rule, the
    induced current will flow clockwise (because this current will
    generate a downward-pointing magnetic field).
