Options:
  • A qA=-80 μC and qB=+80 μC
  • B qA=+80 μC and qB=-80 μC
  • C qA=0=qB
  • D Charge stored in the capacitor increases expotentially with time

The correct answer is: qA=+80 μC and qB=-80 μC
Motional emf across PQ

V=Blv=41 2= 8 V

This is the potential to which the capacitor is charged.

As q=CV

  q=10×10-68=10-5C=80 μC

As the magnetic force on an electron in the conducting rod PQ is towards Q, therefore, A is positively charged and B is negatively charged

ie,   qA=+80 μC   and  qB=-80 μC
