These is there no induced current when the coils are stationary relative to each other? Isn't there still current (moving charges) in the the one on the left to cause a current in the one on the right when neither coil is moving?

this almost looks like homework/schoolwork ?
we will guide you, but we won't give direct answers

do you know why a transformer works with AC and not DC ?
if you do, then you know the answer to your above problem
if you don't, then go search google for the answer :smile:

think about the magnetic field and what it is doing, rather than the currentDave
