Magnetic field induced by current in a conductor question

[jearls74]

I am trying to understand Lenz law as it applies to an A.C. generator, Lenz law says " an induced current is always in such a direction as to oppose the motion or change causing it". Does this mean that if the north pole of a magnet passes a conductor in a stator, that the current induced in the the conductor will cause that section of the stator perpendicular to the north pole of the magnet to become a south pole magnet? and is this magnetic attraction what causes drag?

When the magnet is approaching the induced current will produce a repulsive field, and when it is moving away then the field will be attractive. So approaching will produce the same kind of pole and moving away the opposite pole.

Consequent electromagnetic torque is proportional with sin(ø),which ø is space difference angle between rotating field of stator and rotating field of rotor, therefore induced field pole cannot be same (ø=0) or opposite (ø=180˚) pole of field that originate induced currents.
