 Lenz's Law
Lenz's Law is apparent in the negative sign of Faraday's equation and can be stated as follows: an induced current produces a magnetic field that opposes the change in magnetic flux that originally produced it.
The purpose of this experiment is to observe the current caused by an Emf induced by a changing magnetic field, and verify Faraday's Law and Lenz' law.
Summarize the Laws of Faraday and Lenz as it relates to your observations in this lab.

Lenzs' Law Translator: In Tesla's Colorado Springs diary (1899-1900) he noted that he was experiencing a problem in keeping the top turns of his coils from shorting out due to breakdown of the insulation on the wires under the high electric potential he was creating.
It points out that the electromotive force induced by the variation of magnetic flux, with reference to a conductor, in the manner discovered by Faraday, is always in such direction that, if it produces a current, the magnetic effect of that current opposes the flux variation responsible for both electromotive force and current.
The effect known as MAGNETIC DAMPING also depends upon Lenz' law.

 Phys 104 - The Laws Of Faraday And Lenz - Spring 2006
The negative sign in Faraday's Law comes from Heinrich Lenz, who discovered that the direction of the induced current in a coil of wire is such that the coils own B field opposes the original change in the flux that induced the current.
The purpose of this experiment is to observe the current caused by an emf induced by a changing magnetic field: Faraday's Law and Lenz's law.
Michael Faraday found that an emf is induced in a coil of wire that is proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic flux through the coil:

 Inductance
This changing magnetic field causes an electromotive force in the conductor under Faraday's law of induction, which results in a voltage (v) forming in a such a direction as to oppose the change in current (see Lenz's law).
The symbol L is used for inductance in honour of the physicist Heinrich Lenz.
Inductance is a physical characteristic of an inductor, which is an electrical device that produces a voltage proportional to the instantaneous change in current flowing through it.

 Lenz's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lenz's law can be derived from Faraday's law of induction, simply by noting the minus sign on the right side of the equation.
Lenz's law (Pronounce: \'lent-səz-'lä\ [In German, \z\ has the phonetic sound of \ts\]) was formulated by German physicist Heinrich Lenz and gives the direction of the induced emf resulting from electromagnetic induction, thus:
According to Lenz's law if the magnetic flux is increased then the induced emf is produced in such a way that it opposes the increase in flux i.e.

Maxwell's Equations (section 30-8) will be covered later in Chapter 33 "Electromagnetic Waves." Maxwell's four equations (Gauss's Law for electric fields and magnetic fields, Faraday's Law, and Ampere's Law as modified by Maxwell) predict the existence of electromagnetic waves capable of propagating through empty space at the speed of light, which is an electromagnetic wave.
The phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction and is explained by Faraday's law of induction:
