A metallic rod of length 'l' is moved perpendicular to its length with velocity 'v' in a magnetic field 'B' acting perpendicular to the plane in which rod moves . Derive the expression for the induced emf
Answers
Then a force will act on conductor By faraday's laws of electromagnetic induction,
V = \dfrac{d\phi}{dt}V=dtdϕ
V = B\dfrac{dA}{dt}V=BdtdA
V = BlvV=Blv as dA/dt = lvdA/dt=lv
This is the induced emf across the ends of the rod.

We have the force on the free electrons from Q to P as \vec F_b=\vec {qv}\times \vec BFb=qv×B
where vv is the velocity of the rod as well as of the free electrons inside it, BB is the uniform magnetic field. The free electrons will move towards P and positive charge will appear at Q. An electrostatic field is developed from Q to P in the wire which exerts a force \vec F_e=q\vec EFe=qE on each electron. The charge keeps on gathering until
\vec F_b=\vec F_eFb=Fe and the resultant force on each electron is zero.
|q\vec v\times \vec B|=|q\vec E|∣qv×B∣=∣qE∣
\Rightarrow vB=E⇒vB=E
The potential difference between Q and P is then
V=El=vBlV=El=vBl
which is maintained by the magnetic force of the moving electron producing an emf, e=Bvle=Bvl
