A horizontal straight wire 5 m long extending from east to west is falling with a speed of 10 m/s at right angles to the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field `0.40xx10^(-4)Wb.m^(-2)`.
Which end of the wire will be at higher potential? (Neglect acceleration due to gravity.)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since the direction of the induced emf is from west to east, so the west end of the wire will be at higher potential.
