Explanation / Answer

emf induced= Blv=0.25*10*0.5/100=0.0125V

power=E^2/R=(0.0125)^2/2=7.8125*10^-5W

force=power/velocity=7.8125*10-5/0.5=15.625*10^-5N

power=7.8125*10^-5W

induced current=E/R=0.0125/2=0.00625A

by right hand rule direction of induced current=anticlockwise

power dissipiated in resistor = i^2R=0.00625^2*2=7.8125*10^-5W
