- A conducting rod of length L and mass m falls vertically under gravity through a region of uniform magnetic field B, directed into the plane of the page. The rod is placed on two smooth, vertical conducting rails connected at the bottom by a resistor R. Assuming no friction or air resistance, and the rod quickly reaches a constant terminal velocity, find the expression for v in terms of B, L, m, R.

Concepts Used:
Electromagnetic Induction
Electromagnetic Induction is a current produced by the voltage production due to a changing magnetic field. This happens in one of the two conditions:-
- When we place the conductor in a changing magnetic field.
- When the conductor constantly moves in a stationary field.
Formula:
The electromagnetic induction is mathematically represented as:-
e=N × d∅.dt
Where
- e = induced voltage
- N = number of turns in the coil
- Φ = Magnetic flux (This is the amount of magnetic field present on the surface)
- t = time
