Answer:

The magnetic field encircles the wire in a reversal or counterclockwise direction

Explanation:

Lenz's law states that the direction of the current induced in a conductor by a changing magnetic field is such that the magnetic field created by the induced current opposes the initial changing magnetic field which produced it. According to Lenz law, the magnetic field encircles the wire in a reversal or counterclockwise direction.

Therefore, the first option is the correct answer.
