hey everybody, may i ask what does this question mean
ii) A description of the production of eddy currents in terms of Lenz’s Law

its question two of my assignment. But I am not sure wat the question mean and how to start it. Got any idea just drop some here: thanks

i got heaps of info but stil don't understand the question.
Does it want me to just list the main features of eddy current or lenz law@_@confusing the part"eddy current in lenz law"
 
I think it wants you to explain how moving a metal plate through a magnetic field induces eddy currents.
