Question: Answered & Verified by Expert
A wire of length $1 \mathrm{~m}$ is moving at a speed of $2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ perpendicular homogenous magnetic field of $0.5 \mathrm{~T}$. The ends of the wire are joined to resistance $6 \Omega$. The rate at which work is being done to keep the wire moving at that speed is

Options:
  • A $\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{~W}$
  • B $\frac{1}{6} \mathrm{~W}$
  • C $\frac{1}{12} \mathrm{~W}$
  • D $1 \mathrm{~W}$

The correct answer is: $\frac{1}{6} \mathrm{~W}$
Emf induced e $=\mathrm{B} \ell \mathrm{v}=0.5 \times 1 \times 2=1 \mathrm{~V}$
Rate of doing work $=$ Power
$$
\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{e}^2}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{(1)^2}{6}=\frac{1}{6} \mathrm{~W}
