yes but what is causing it? Is it due to the coil cutting the field lines or something? What would an exam answer be

Well I just refer to it as induction & work in scientific research with EMs; that said this is very much from an engineering perspective

That's hard to answer without more context. Is this GCSE? A Level? How many marks? Is this a question on its own or part of a longer question?
