A boat is moving due east in a region where the earth's magnetic field is \(3.6 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{Am}\) due north and horizontal. The boat carries a vertical conducting rod 2 m long. If the speed of the boat is \(2.00 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. in the rod is

  1. A 1.4 mV
  2. B \(\quad 0.54 \mathrm{mV}\)
  3. C 0.72 mV
  4. D 0.144 mV
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 0.144 mV

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} \mathrm{e} & =\mathrm{B} \times \mathrm{v} \times l \\ & =3.6 \times 10^{-5} \times 2 \times 2 \\ & =14.4 \times 10^{-5} \\ & =0.144 \mathrm{mV}\end{aligned}\)
