A wire of length 1 m moving with velocity 8 m s-1 at right angles to a magnetic field of 2 T. The magnitude of induced emf, between the ends of wire will be ___________.
  1. 20 V
  2. 8 V
  3. 12 V
  4. 16 V

Solution

The expression of motional emf is e=BLvsinθ, where, θ is angle between magnetic field and direction of motion.

Here, θ=90°

So, induced emf across the ends of wire is e= BLvsin90°=BLv

= 2 × 1 × 8 = 16 V
