A conductor bar with mass m and length L slides over horizontal rails that are connected to a voltage source. The voltage source maintains a constant current I in the rails and bar, and constant, uniform, vertical magnetic field `vecB` fills the region between the rails (as shown in Fig.)

Find the magnitude and direction of the net force on the conducting bar. Ignore friction, air resistance and electrical resistance.

A

ILB, to the right.

B

ILB, to the left.

C

2ILB, to the right.

D

2ILB, to the left.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
`F=ILB`, to the right.
`v^2=2ad implies d=(v^2)/(2a)=(v^2m)/(2ILB)`
