Question

Explain conversion of mechanical energy into the elecnical energy in case of conducting rod sliding over a U-shaped Wire Which is placed inside a magnetic field.Answer the Given question.

Answer 1

As the area enclosed by the rod and u shaped wire changes every time due the rod's velocity.

Due to that Magnetic flux changes producing induced current which inturn is responsible for the retarding Lorentz force.

The Lorentz force tries to balance the force exerted for motion of rod.
