A simple pendulum with bob of mass \(m\) and conducting wire of length L swings under gravity through an angle \(\theta\). The component of earth's magnetic field in the direction perpendicular to swing is B. Maximum e.m.f. induced across the pendulum is ( \(g=\) acceleration due to gravity)

  1. A \(2 \mathrm{BL}(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}})(\sin \theta / 2)\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{BL}(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}})(\sin \theta / 2)\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{BL}(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}})^2(\sin \theta / 2)\)
  4. D \(2 \mathrm{BL}(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}})\left(\sin ^2 \theta / 2\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 \mathrm{BL}(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}})(\sin \theta / 2)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 = mgL(1-\cos\theta) \) \( v_{max} = \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos\theta)} = \sqrt{2gL(2\sin^2(\theta/2))} = 2\sqrt{gL}\sin(\theta/2) \)
