Q.

Two parallel long smooth conducting rails separated by a distance l are connected by a movable conducting connector of mass m. Terminals of the rails are connected by the resistor R and the capacitor C as shown in figure. A uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the plane of the rail is switched on. The conductor is dragged by a constant force F. Find the speed of the connector as a function of time if the force F is applied at t=0. Also, find the terminal velocity of the connector.

a

v=2FRB2l21+e-B2l2mR-RB2l2Ct; vT=9FRB2l2

b

v=F2R9B2l21-e-B2l2mR+RB2l2Ct; vT=FR9B2l2

c

v=FRB2l21-e-B2l2mR+RB2l2Ct; vT=FRB2l2

d

v=4FRB2l21-e-B2l2mR+RB2l2Ct; vT=8FRB2l2

answer is C.

Detailed Solution

Let v be the velocity of connector at some instant of time. Then, 

Question Image

Vab=Bvl, i1=BvlR, q=CBvl    i2=dqdt=CBldvdt

Now, i=i1+i2=BvlR+CBldvdt

Magnetic force, Fm=ilB=B2l2R.v+B2l2C.dvdt

Further, Fnet=F-Fm

or mdvdt=F-B2l2Rv-B2l2Cdvdt

0vdvF-B2l2Rv=0tdtm+B2l2C

Integrating we get, 

v=FRB2l21-e-B2l2mR+RB2l2Ct

Terminal velocity in this case is: vT=FRB2l2
