Answer:
The direction of induced emf is revered and hence the direction of the induced current.
Explanation:
If the polarity of the magnet is reversed, the direction if the field lines through the solenoid is also reversed, which according to Faraday’s law means
in other words, the direction of the magnetic flux is revered, and therefore, the direction of the induced emf is also revered.
Furthermore, according to Ohm’s law
which tells us that if the induced emf changes sign (is reversed)
the direction of the induced current is also reversed.
