The motional EMF induced in a conductor of length $\ell$ moving with velocity $v$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field $B$ is:

$Bv/\ell$
$B\ell v$
$B/(\ell v)$
$B\ell/v$

Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. $B\ell v$

When a straight conductor of length $\ell$ moves perpendicular to $B$ with speed $v$, the rate of flux change is $B\ell v$, so $|e| = B\ell v$.

A conducting rod of length 1 m moves with velocity 5 m/s perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of 0.4 T. The motional EMF is:

2.0 V
1.0 V
0.5 V
10 V

Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 2.0 V

$|e| = B\ell v = 0.4 \times 1 \times 5 = 2.0$ V.
