Practice mode Electromagnetic Induction

A straight conductor 0.50 m long moves at 4.0 m/s at right angles to a uniform magnetic field of 0.30 T. What emf is induced between its ends?

Correct answer D. 0.60 V

Explanation

Motional emf ε = BLv = 0.30 T × 0.50 m × 4.0 m/s = 0.60 V. Dividing by v instead of multiplying gives 0.038 V.
