Find the current in the wire for the configuration.

Question:

Find the current in the wire for the configuration. Wire PQ has negligible resistance. B, the magnetic field is coming out of the paper. θ is a fixed angle made by PQ travelling smoothly over two conducting parallel wires separated by a distance d.

Solution:

F is the force on the free charge particle of PQ.

The motional emf is given as the product of E along the PQ and the effective length PQ.

Therefore, the induced current will be vBd/R which is independent of q.
