The correct Answer is:
To find the induced electromotive force (emf) in a straight conductor moving in a magnetic field, we can use the formula: \[ \text{emf} (E) = L \cdot v \cdot B \cdot \sin(\theta) \] Where: - \( E \) is the induced emf, - \( L \) is the length of the conductor, - \( v \) is the velocity of the conductor, - \( B \) is the magnetic field strength, - \( \theta \) is the angle between the velocity vector and the magnetic field vector. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Length of the conductor, \( L = 0.1 \, \text{m} \) - Magnetic field strength, \( B = 0.1 \, \text{T} \) - Velocity of the conductor, \( v = 15 \, \text{m/s} \) - Angle \( \theta = 90^\circ \) (since the conductor moves perpendicular to the magnetic field) 2. **Calculate \( \sin(\theta) \):** - Since \( \theta = 90^\circ \), we have: \[ \sin(90^\circ) = 1 \] 3. **Substitute the values into the emf formula:** \[ E = L \cdot v \cdot B \cdot \sin(\theta) \] \[ E = 0.1 \, \text{m} \cdot 15 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 0.1 \, \text{T} \cdot 1 \] 4. **Perform the multiplication:** \[ E = 0.1 \cdot 15 \cdot 0.1 = 0.15 \, \text{V} \] 5. **Conclusion:** The induced emf between the two ends of the conductor is \( 0.15 \, \text{V} \). ### Final Answer: The emf induced between the two ends of the conductor is **0.15 volts**.
