A conducting rod is pulled along horizontal, frictionless, conducting rails at a constant speed of 2.3m/s. The rails are spaced 82cm across. The entire system is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.018T that points into the screen. The resistance of the rod is 0.40Ω, but the resistance of the rails is negligible. What force must be applied to the rod in order to maintain the constant speed?

A loop of wire of radius a = 35 mm has an electrical resistance R = 0.038 Ω . The loop is initially inside a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B0 = 1.8 T parallel to the loop's axis. The magnetic field is then reduced slowly at a constant rate, which induces a current I = 0.20 A in the loop. How long does it take for the magnitude of the uniform magnetic field to drop from 1.8 T to zero? Find the time Δt it takes the magnetic field to drop to zero.

You've decided to make a magnetic projectile launcher for your science project. An aluminum bar of length l = 5.19 cm slides along metal rails through a magnetic field B = 0.664 T. The switch closes at t = 0 s , while the bar is at rest, and a battery of emf = 16.50 V starts a current flowing around the loop. The battery had internal resistance, r = 0.139 Ω. The resistance of rails and the bar are effectively zero. What is the terminal speed (in m/s) of the bar?
