A U-shaped conducting wire of mass , having length of its horizontal section as , is free to move vertically up and down. The two ends of the wire are immersed in mercury for proper electrical contact. The wire is in a homogeneous field of magnetic induction as shown. The wire jumps up to a height when a charge q , in the form of a current pulse, is sent through the wire. Considering that the duration of the current pulse is very small compared to the time of flight, the charge passed through the wire is estimated to be nearly
