Question
In the figure below, a metal bar sitting on two parallel conducting rails, connected to each other by a resistor, is pulled to the right with a constant force of magnitude Fapp = 1.20 N.The friction between the bar and rails is negligible. The resistance R = 8.00 Ω,the bar is moving at a constant speed of 1.75 m/s, the distance between the rails is ℓ, and a uniform magnetic field
B is directed into the page. Two parallel horizontal rails are vertically aligned and connected on their left ends by a wire. A resistor R is in the middle of the wire. The rails are separated by a distance ℓ. A bar lies vertically across the middle of the rails, to the right of the wire. An arrow labeled Fapp extends from the middle of the bar to the right.
(a) What is the current through the resistor (in A)?
(b) If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 2.60 T, what is the length ℓ (in m)?
(c) What is the rate at which energy is delivered to the resistor (in W)?
(d) What is the mechanical power delivered by the applied constant force (in W)?
