3. A rectangular loop of wire with mass m, width w, vertical length I, and resistance R falls out of a magnetic field
under the influence of gravity, as shown in the fig. 2. The magnetic field is uniform B = Bot within the area
z>0 and zero outside of that area.
B=0
Figure 2: Rectangular wire loop
(a) Using Lenz' law, find the direction of current flowing in the loop in fig. 2. Make sure your answer includes
a statement about the change in magnetic flux.
(b) Let h be the z co-ordinate of the bottom of the loop. Suppose that the loop is falling at constant velocity
Ut for all h. Find an expression for the induced EMF & as a function of h. Sketch (h) for -l<h<l.
Clue: To use Faraday's law, you'll need to take the time derivative of the magnetic flur through the loop.
(c) Find an expression for the induced current I(h).
(d) Draw a free body diagram indicating the forces acting on the loop.
(e) Find the terminal velocity v, in terms of the other given quantities.
(f) [Bonus] Suppose that the loop is not falling at terminal velocity. At t = 0, h = 0, and the loop is released
from rest. Find h(t), the velocity of the loop as it falls.
