Two identical conductors `P` and `Q` are placed on two friction less rails `R` and `S` in a uniform magnetic field directed into the plane. If `P` is moved in the direction shown in figure with a constant speed, then rod `Q`

A

(a) will be attracted toward `P`

B

(b) will be repelled away from `P`

C

(c ) will remain stationary

D

(d) may be repelled away or attracted toward `P`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) From Lenz's law if one rod is moved away from the second rod then the secon rod will be attrected towards the first rod so as oppose the change influx.
