A metallic rod of length ′l′'l' is tied to a string of length ′2l′'2l' and made to rotate with angular speed ′2ω′'2\omega' on a horizontal table with one end of the string fixed. If there exists a vertical magnetic field 'B' in the region, the emf ′e′'e' induced across the ends of rod is

Options

  1. A5Bωl35B\omega l^3
  2. B32Bωl3\dfrac{3}{2}B\omega l^3
  3. C2 Bωl22\ B\omega l^2
  4. D5 Bω l25\,B\omega\,l^2

Correct answer

D. 5 Bω l25\,B\omega\,l^2

Step-by-step solution

Let the fixed end of the string be the origin. The rod is situated between the distances r1=2lr_1 = 2l and r2=2l+l=3lr_2 = 2l + l = 3l from the fixed end.

Consider a small element of the rod of length dxdx at a distance xx from the fixed end. The velocity of this element is v=x(2ω)v = x(2\omega).

The motional emf induced in this small element is de=Bv dx=B(x⋅2ω) dxde = Bv\,dx = B(x \cdot 2\omega)\,dx.

The total induced emf across the ends of the rod is obtained by integrating dede from x=2lx = 2l to x=3lx = 3l:

e=∫2l3l2Bωx dxe = \int_{2l}^{3l} 2B\omega x\,dx

e=2Bω[x22]2l3le = 2B\omega \left[ \dfrac{x^2}{2} \right]_{2l}^{3l}

e=Bω((3l)2−(2l)2)e = B\omega ((3l)^2 - (2l)^2)

e=Bω(9l2−4l2)e = B\omega (9l^2 - 4l^2)

e=5Bωl2e = 5B\omega l^2

Answer: 5 Bω l25\,B\omega\,l^2
