Question
In 1996, NASA performed an experiment called the
Tethered Satellite experiment. In this experiment, a
1.70 x 104 - m length of wire was let out by the
space shuttle Atlantis to generate a motional emf. The
shuttle had an orbital speed of 7.70 x 10³ m/s, and
the magnitude of the earth's magnetic field at the
location of the wire was 5.10 x 10-5 T. If the wire
●
had moved perpendicular to the earth's magnetic
field, wat would have been the motional emf
generated between the ends of the wire?
