A neutral metal bar moves at a constant velocity

v

to the right through a region of uniform magnetic field directed out of the page, as shown. Therefore, A neutral metal bar moves at a constant velocity v to the right through a region of uniform magnetic field directed out

A neutral metal bar moves at a constant velocity v to the right through a region of uniform magnetic field directed out

Options

Apositive charges accumulate to the left side and negative charges to the right side of the rod.
Bnegative charges accumulate to the left side and positive charges to the right side of the rod.
Cpositive charges accumulate to the top end and negative charges to the bottom end of the rod.
Dnegative charges accumulate to the top end and positive charges to the bottom end of the rod.

Correct answer

D. negative charges accumulate to the top end and positive charges to the bottom end of the rod.
