Correct Answer: Heinrich Friedrich Lenz


Solution : The correct answer is Heinrich Friedrich Lenz.

Heinrich Friedrich Lenz was a Russian physicist of German origin who independently formulated what is known as Lenz's Law in 1834. Lenz's law articulates that when a magnetic field around a conductor changes, the induced electric current's direction opposes the change. In other words, the magnetic field generated by this induced current acts to counteract alterations in the original magnetic field.
