Question

A conducting rod with a length of 25 cm is placed on a U-shaped metal wire that has a resistance R of 8.0 (omega) as shown in the figure. The wire and the rod are placed in the plane of the paper. A constant magnetic field of strength 0.40 T is applied perpendicular into the paper. An applied force moves the rod to the right with a constant speed of 6.0 m/s. What is the magnitude and direction of the induced current in the wire?


The answer is 0.6V but idk how to get it.

Explanation / Answer

emf = BLv

=0.4*0.25*6

=0.6 V

now current=V/R

=0.6/8

=0.075 A

the direction is anti clockwise
