Option (A) is correct. Induced emf. in the conducting loop formed by rail, bar and the resistor is given by Vemf = d dt where is total magnetic flux passing through the loop. Consider the bar be located at a distance x from the resistor at time t . So the total magnetic flux passing through the loop at time t is =

# B : dS

= Blx

Now the induced emf in a loop placed in magnetic field is defined as Vemf = d dt where is the total magnetic flux passing through the loop. Therefore the induced emf in the square loop is ( = Blx ) Vemf = d (Blx) = Bl dx dt dt Since from the given figure, we have l = 2 m and B = 0.1 Wb/m2 and dx/dt = velocity of bar = 5 m/s So, induced emf is Vemf = (0.1) (2) (5) = 1 volt According to Lenzs law the induced current I in a loop flows such as to produce magnetic field that opposes the change in B (t). As the bar moves away from the resistor the change in magnetic field will be out of the page so the induced current will be in the same direction of I shown in figure. Thus, the current in the loop is ( 1) ( R = 10 ) I =Vemf = = 0.01 A 10 R

Option (B) is correct. Magnetic flux density produced at a distance from a long straight wire carrying current I is defined as I B = 0 a 2 where a is the direction of flux density as determined by right hand rule. So, the magnetic flux density produced by the straight conducting wire linking through the
