3.(25) A conducting rod of length t = 35.0 cm is free to slide on two parallel conducting bars
as shown in the Figure below. Two resistors Rr = 2.00 O and I& = 5.00 O are connected across
the ends of the bars to form a loop. A constant magnetic field B = 2.50 T is directed
perpendicularly into the page. An extemal agent pulls the rod to the left with a constant
speed of z = 8.00 m/s.

ft) (5) Consider the motion of free electrons in the bar. Show that the sane expression of
the emf can be found when equilibrium is reached between the electric and the
magnetic forces.
Two forces are acting on free electrons, the magnetic force
and the
electric force. At equilibrium, we have the sum of the forces is equal to 0 leading to
q E = q a B o r E = o B
The electric field is related to the potential difference across the ends of the conductor:
L V = E t = B t a
The left-hand loop contains decreasing
flux away from you, so the induced current in it will be (ii;
