Explanation :
When the north pole of a bar magnet is pushed towards the close coil, the magnetic flux through coil increases and the currentis induced in the coil in such a direction that it opposes the increase in flux. This is possible when the induced current in the coil is in the anticlockwise direction. Opposite will happen when the north pole is moved away from the coil.
In either case, it is the work done against the force of magnetic repulsion/attraction that gets ‘converted’ into the induced emf.
