Question
As shown below, a square loop of wire of side a moves through a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B perpendicular to the page at constant velocity directed to the right. Which statement regarding the electric field induced in the wires is correct for the wires at the left and right sides of the loop? a. The electric field E vector is directed upwards in both the right and left sides of the loop. b. The electric field E vector is directed upwards in the right side and downwards in the left side of the loop C. The electric field E vector is directed upwards in the left side and downwards in the right side of the loop. d. The electric field E vector is directed downwards in both the right and left sides of the loop. e. There is no electric field present in any side of the loop.Explanation / Answer
Here ,
as F = q* V X B
Electric field = V X B
the induced electric field on left side is downwards
and on the right side is also downwards ,
therefore ,
the correct option is d) electric field in both sides is downwards
