Can someone please provide a clear answer to this question? It's been answered a couple of times with no good explanation, and varying answers.
As shown below, a square loop of wire of side a moves through a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B perpendicular to the page at constant velocity v directed to the right. Which statement regarding the electric field induced in the wires is the correct of the wires at the left and right sides of the loop?
a. The electric field E is directed upwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
b. The electric field E is directed upwards in the right side and downwards in the left side of the loop.a. The electric field E is directed upwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
c. The electric field E is directed upwards in the left side and downwards in the right side of the loop.
d. The electric field E is directed downwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
e. There is no electric field present in any side of the loop.
Explanation / Answer
apply fleming Right hand thumb rule in this case
a. The electric field E is directed upwards in both the right and left sides of the loop.
and does not depend on left and right side
