A rectangular wire loop of height h, width w, and net electrical resistance R lies in the x-y plane. As shown in the figure below, the entire region x < 0 of space is occupied by a constant, uniform magnetic field which points in the –z direction (into the page). In order to determine the magnitude of this field, a student pulls the wire loop out of the magnetic field region at a constant velocity v in the +x-direction, and measures the current I induced in the loop during this process. I = 17 μA R = 35 ohms h = 3 cm  w = 8 cm v = 2 cm/sec a) What is the direction of the current induced in the wire loop? b)What is the magnitude B of the magnetic field?

A rectangular wire loop of height h, width w, and net electrical resistance R lies in the x-y plane. As shown in the figure below, the entire region x < 0 of space is occupied by a constant, uniform magnetic field which points in the –z direction (into the page). In order to determine the magnitude of this field, a student pulls the wire loop out of the magnetic field region at a constant velocity v in the +x-direction, and measures the current I induced in the loop during this process.

I = 17 μA
R = 35 ohms
h = 3 cm 
w = 8 cm
v = 2 cm/sec

a) What is the direction of the current induced in the wire loop?

b)What is the magnitude B of the magnetic field?
