Detailed Solution

Let at any time t, velocity of rod be v, then emf developed across its ends is e = B₀vl . Due to this induced emf, a current will establish in circuit given by $I = \frac{B_{0} v /}{R}$

For rod,
$\begin{array}{l} m \frac{dv}{dt} = - {IB}_{0} I = - \frac{B_{0}^{2} I^{2}}{R} v \\ \Rightarrow \int_{v_{0}}^{v} \frac{dv}{v} = - \int_{0}^{t} \frac{B_{0}^{2} I^{2}}{mR} dt \Rightarrow v = v_{0} e^{- \frac{B_{0}^{2} /^{2} t}{mR}} \end{array}$
