A magnetic feld -0.45 T points out of the page. The ralis are seperated by 25.0 om What emf is generated? the orent in the rod? zrthe rod has a resistann of 18.0 ? and the nis 8nd canectors have neghgtie resistance, what At what rate is energy being tranferred to thermal energy Send Feedback post DiscussionExplanation / Answer
V = 55 cm/s = 0.55 m/s
B = 0.45 T
L = 25 cm = 0.25 m
As we know that the EMF is equal to the rate of change of flux through the coil.
Therefore -
EMF is given by E = BVL
= 0.45 * 0.55 * 0.25 = 0.0619 V
Resistance R = 18.0 ohm
So, current I = E / R = 0.0619 / 18 = 0.00344 A
Now, rate of energy being transferred into thermal energy = I^2*R = 0.00344^2 * 18 = 0.000213 W = 2.13 x 10^-4 W
