A conducting wire of length l is placed ...

A conducting wire of length `l` is placed on a rough horizontal surface, where a uniform horizontal magnetic field B perpendicular to the length of the wire exists. Least values of the forces required to move the rod when a current `I` is established in the rod are observed to be `F_1` and `F_2 (lt F_1)` for the two possible directions of the current through the rod, respectively. Find the weight of the rod and the coefficient of friction between the rod and the surface.
