At a place the value of horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is A metallic rod AB of length 2 m placed in east-west direction, having the end A towards east, falls vertically downward with a constant velocity of 50 m/s. Which end of the rod becomes positively charged and what is the value of induced potential difference between the two ends?
Induced potential difference between two ends = Blv =BHlv
By Fleming's right hand rule, end A becomes positively charged.
