Motional EMF
Question

The magnitude of the earth's magnetic field at a place is B0 and the angle of dip is δ. A horizontal conductor of length l lying along the magnetic north-south moves eastwards with a velocity v. The emf induced across the conductor is

Moderate
Solution

When a conductor lying along the magnetic north-south, moves eastwards it will cut vertical component of B0. So induced emf

e=vBVl=vB0sinδl=B0lvsinδ
