JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 -6. Electromagnetic induction

A 20 m long uniform copper wire held horizontally is allowed to fall under the gravity ( \(g =10 m / s ^2\) ) through a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 0.5 Gauss perpendicular to the length of the wire. The induced EMF across the wire it travells a vertical distance of 200 m is ___________ mV .

  1. A \(0.2 \sqrt{10}\)
  2. B \( 20 \sqrt{10} \)
  3. C \( 2 \sqrt{10} \)
  4. D \( 200 \sqrt{10} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 20 \sqrt{10} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\varepsilon= vB \ell\) \( v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2\times10\times200}=20\sqrt{10} \) \( \varepsilon=(20\sqrt{10})(0.5\times10^{-4})20\) \(=20 \sqrt{10} \times 10^{-3}=20 \sqrt{10} mV\)
