A conducting rod of length $L$ rotates with angular speed $\omega$ in a uniform magnetic field of induction $B$ which is perpendicular to its motion. The induced emf developed between the two ends of the rod is
  1. $\frac{B L^2 \omega}{4}$
  2. $\frac{B L^2 \omega}{2}$
  3. $B L^2 \omega$
  4. $2 B L^2 \omega$

Solution

Linear velocity of the rod $v=r \omega=\frac{L \omega}{2}$
$\therefore \quad$ Induced emf $e=B v L=B \times \frac{L \omega}{2} L=\frac{1}{2} B \omega L^2$
