Question
A metal bar of length L=0.60 m. slides freely on two frictionless, horizontal metal rails within a magnetic field B. There is a resistor connecting the horizontal metal rails on the left with a resistence R = 200 . The magnetic field B = 1.5 T is directed upward, perendicular to the rectangular, enclosing magnetic field and also perpendicular to the plane. An external force is applied to the metal bar such that it moves to the right with a speed of V = 25 m/s. What are the magnitude and direction of the current induced in the metal bar?
